That is a rather rosy scenario, but the reality may turn out to be quite different. For your "shift into neutral" (or as some say "hitting the pause button") idea to actually play out (without a hitch) assumes that suppliers were paid for any perishable inventory (which is no longer sellable) and all of that is then replaced, business real estate/equipment rent/lease payments (including utility bills) were made and the same experienced workers remain available for immediate reinstatement - all having been paid for with no business income for however long this government mandtated "interruption" ends up lasting.
I didn't say there wouldn't be hitches or difficulties. I'm just giving a broad brush concept. You make some good points. Experienced workers will be in demand, of course. Capital for startup costs and operations could be a hurdle.
