Who is debating this? I haven't seen a reliable "con" side of this debate, they are all weird "people will take less care", "cloth masks are not as good as N95", "people will wear them poorly and the mask won't be as effective".

These are all "perfect is the enemy of good" fallacies, not "debate".

Also, how does a bad mask increase aerosol? That makes no sense.

See http://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2020/04/commentar... for a reliable "con" side of the debate.

Note in particular that cloth masks were tried and failed during the Spanish flu epidemic.
