It's a major difference of scale... things could be perfectly normal in July,
but we'd have still have had to cancel the Olympics.
Hundreds of thousands of people involved, many of whom have to spend
significant time together *now* to make things work.
Teams literally can't train, can't travel to train, can't qualify, etc.
On-site Logistical stuff which need months of lead time can't occur.

But, I agree that making IETF108 virtual is probably best.

What I'd like to see is that we agree
  1) that the Madrid Time Zone will be used for all plenary stuff

  2) that WGs SHOULD plan to have a series of virtual interims

  3) that the set of needed week-of topics will be significant lower,
     and will all fit into the week of.
