Presumably given the requirement to self-isolate at a designated address, you'd only be able to say your final goodbye if you were staying at the person in question's place of residence. You do raise an interesting point: the way the guidelines have been presented, stays of fewer than 14 days would seem impossible.
Badly thought out political optics.
