My 6 year old cannot make the decision on her own, it's up to us. Regardless of how safe and effective these vaccinations have proven to be for now, there cannot have been any long term studies because it hasn't been around long term. Other vaccinations which have been around long term, have also been modified repeatedly after their initial versions. Anyone have a polio shot scar? I don't but my mom does. Vaccines become safer the more information we have. We've had mRNA vaccines now for less than two years. There just is not enough data for him to feel comfortable yet.
I'm sure you've heard enough commercials "If you or someone you loved has ever taken X drug, you may be entitled to compensation." Well, we don't want that to be our kids in 20 years because of something we made them do.

This might be a stupid question and I’m not trying to be insulting
But why is do nothing the default stance in your two yes one no rule?
Right now you exist in a 1 No 1 yes scenario for Not getting the vaccine. You don’t have 2 Yes’s to not get the vaccine.
Choosing to not get vaccinated is just as much of an active choice as choosing to be vaccinated.
This isn’t status quo or get vaccinated it’s Choosing to have your child get Covid with or without the additional protection of a vaccine.
