Spot on. Government policies and messages discourage mobility to the greatest extent possible. This is the reason why testing requirements were replaced with blanket quarantine for all arrivals in many European countries over the festive season. Governments don't want people to travel unless absolutely necessary. In many countries, even domestic travel comes with so many curbs that it's almost impossible. Germany is one example - overnight hotel stays for non-essential purposes are banned, even though hotels are not closed. The same goes for Austria, effectively putting non-essential travel within the country off the cards, unless it's out and back within one day.
