Inaccurate Virus Models Are Panicking Officials Into Ill-Advised Lockdowns

The website says that the model is designed for POLITICIANS to make quick decisions. We all know that very few politicians are mathematical or scientific thinkers. They operate on feelings. They don't want to be held responsible, etc. etc. etc.
From this article it seems possible that the model created by a few people in a group called COVID ACT NOW is what is leading the world into a tail spin. Their website had a very inclusive disclaimer to attempt to have no liability and a long list of "current limitations of the model." A few of the many limitations are the following:
R0s for interventions are guesses , in some cases informed by data. There is no historical precedent for what is going on right now to draw from.
The model does not adjust for the population density, culturally-determined interaction frequency and closeness, humidity, temperature, etc in calculating R0.
Demographics for the USA as a whole are used, rather than specific to each state.
Do we have some politicians who would do anything to get/retain political power? m m m m m
