why do people need to test all the time these days? what's the point? I understand having a couple tests on hand, maybe even one or two for every person in the household, if you're really paranoid and you want to see if the symptoms someone has started having might be related to covid instead of just being a cold or whatever, and you want to do it at home instead of rushing to urgent care to check. but what's gained from testing with "frequency"—especially now that it sure seems like the bulk of the deadliness of the pandemic is pretty much done with at this point?

We don't! I've had to use a bunch of these lately, as you are supposed to test twice if you have symptoms and test negative the first time (yeah - read the instructions!), and it's cold&flu season.
My entire family has had cold and flu symptoms multiple times in the past 2 months - that's 10 tests each time if we're following protocol.
