“This never was brought up as an issue when the same thinking was used to fan panic… “

Well, that depends on who you are talking about - I brought it up every single day, from the very beginning, until I was blue in the face.
Every time there was a surge in testing, there would (of course) be a surge in cases.
I was constantly trying to explain to people here on FR that case numbers mean nothing.
And by the way, flu and cold statistics also mean nothing - since we rarely go to the doctor for a flu or a cold.
Nobody among my family and acquaintances ever calls the doctor gif a flu or cold. We buy some over-the-counter cold medicine - or use what’s left from last time we had a cold or flu.
So how do they know how many people had the flu? They don’t have the slightest clue. Yet they report it.
The whole thing is absurd.
