    It does not take a brain surgeon, no irony intended, to intuitively realize that wearing an obstructive device over one’s mouth and nose restricts airflow. Thus, more effort is required to both inhale and exhale. 

    And obviously, some of the exhaled air, containing higher concentrations of carbon dioxide, is trapped within the mask and inhaled. I hope this is clear to those demanding use of masks. 
    That must be why brain surgeons keep dropping dead from wearing masks during surgeries.

    Straw man argument. 

    Here’s a study concluding surgeons’ blood oxygen saturation decreased wearing masks: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18500410/

    Can we agree lower levels of oxygen in the blood is a bad thing?

    Sure. The vast majority of people are wearing simple cloth masks and this is not an issue. People using gear like N95 masks should be aware of how to use those properly. Incidentally, low levels of oxygen in the blood is a major complication of COVID-19, so we should be avoiding transmissibility of that by wearing masks.
