It's just a minor inconvenience! Don't be selfish. Just do this one little thing for the good of everyone, so we can get out of this and go back to our lives, just as they were before!
Actually, it's precisely the fact of it being a minor inconvenience which makes it so easy to keep complying and maintaining this standard.
If the benefits of continuing are or were to ever become redundant, and the consequences of complying to become such that it causes net harm to the community, then it's that convenience which facilitates one's continued acquiescence.
Whereas, if you were to take it off, you invite hatred and scorn. You invite glares of condemnation, opportunities to be ridiculed, risk of being harmed, and the prospect of being excluded from the community.
