I think it's debatable which exposes you to more risk and depends on your activities in scenario 2 I guess. Personally, I believe we will see very few positive tests once the players get to Edmonton and TO.

1) living in a controlled environment, yes. But a controlled environment with several hundred other people. You need ALL of them to be fully compliant with the protocols, or it breaks down and risk elevates.
2) others may not be being as strict (no doubt), but I can use our house as an example because we a) have heightened risk, and b) are fortunate enough to be able to take the precautions that are available. We order in almost everything. And when we go to the grocery store (maybe every 2 weeks or so), we go to Sunterra where the crowds are MUCH smaller (maybe a dozen people in the store at one time, max) and the protocols are tighter. When this started, we went almost 2 full months before we had any contact with any other humans at all.
Staying home, when you're following the tightest protocols you can, is without doubt, the safer scenario. And it isn't close.
