1.) We just had our federal election so politicians were super cautious not to alienate anyone with though measures. Because we didn't have the transition of power to the new chancellor yet, this is still holding us back.
2.) If vaccination rates would just be another 5% higher (meaning 20% less unvaccinated people), the speed of the 4th wave would have been so much damper that we would have gotten through this winter without any hard restrictions (see France). I think there was a lot of wishful thinking involved that thought that those 5% would come around eventually.
