Could be interesting

I think this has applications for situations like doctors working
surgery where using fingers is unfeasible, but mind you it would
be difficult to breath through a mask, so kinda negates that one,
but Ive worked with disabled children who lack fine motor skills,
this would be perfect, or at least a great step up.

Could Become Trendy... Air Jordan

On the lighter side, I think a lot of
young people are going to blow away
those things they don't want to see.

Something so simple could become trendy.

Gives a new meaning to the name, Air Jordan.
