When sufficient people are vaccinated the virus hopefully hits a lot of dead ends for transmission and the R number plummets. Then it’s freedom.
Until the next one.

This is the point under question though isn't it?
If we are asking previously infected people to self isolate, presumably because there is a risk that they are not a transmission dead end, then why would vaccinated people be such a dead end?
(Apologies for the unfortunate use of the 0hraae "dead end")

For me, the interesting take away about Boris' self isolation is what it says about our post vaccine procedures.
Does this approach mean that even vaccinated people will need to self isolate, until we have a handle on their propensity to spread the virus?
Or perhaps, when sufficient people are vaccinated, we just won't mind if it spreads?
