Not everyone who works in the arts cares about awards. I mean, who actually got into theater because they wanted to win a trophy? It's all subjective. If you want to win something meaningful, play a sport. You actually compete in that.

Most people in sports do it for the love of the sport, just as most of us do theatre for the love of theatre.

I didn't say they/we all care about awards (a very cynical way to read my post, but maybe I left it too much to interpretation). What i mean is that a Tony can change your entire life and career in a very big and positive way. Why would anyone who would have happily been nominated and potentially won, and participated in this awards ceremony/show any other year now just NOT want to because if they won they'd be accepting it from their living room due to a pandemic forcing us to distance?
It makes no sense.
