So, Pi are the CDC picnic tables " a waste sure" or are they justified?

These aren't contradictions. 

The CDC might have had good reasons justifying the tables, that doesn't mean that there weren't cheaper options that fulfilled. 

And from a cost standpoint, there are cheaper options, that are worse in various ways.

I'm leaning towards the tables being a waste. Not as big of a waste as your posts have been implying, the absolute cheapest table on the market is hardly ever a good option for anything. But that doesn't mean there weren't good reasons for having those kinds of tables; and it's not contradictive to think about what those reasons are. 

The world is nuanced and complicated. Kind of have to look at the layers to things.
