It isn't zero, and it is greater than staying home. So it is rational for him to thus avoid it.

I don’t think anyone knows that. The level of risk differential is so small that you would have to see exactly how strict and tight his home bubble is to make the assessment that he would increase the risk to his family by playing. I contend it’s not a measurably different therefore not reason one way or the other
I agree it’s the rational decision not to play though. He would increase risk to himself with no gain. Of course if every player did this there would be a revenue hit and then the decision may not be rational depending on how much risk one is willing to take for monetary gain.
