Even if the claim were true, I really don’t see too many people willing to break the “Don’t rob/assault/etc.” laws being stopped by the “Don’t wear a mask” laws. Banks have had signs prohibiting face coverings for a long time. Never stopped bank robbers from wearing them AFAIK. You’d need a ridiculously prompt and consistent and professional level of enforcement for this to work even if all the claims about the reasons for it were true.
