As soon as mask requirements are dropped for vaccinated people, anti-vaxxers will ditch the mask.

Of course, but that's going to happen whether we do it a month from now, or a year from now. If people aren't going to get the shot, they're not going to get the shot, and I'm not going to walk around with a mask on for the rest of my life for fear of infecting vaccine skeptics. If they want to risk having a tango with the Rona without the protection of a vaccine, that's their business.

I'm not saying I'm going to stop wearing a mask tomorrow, and I'll wear then longer at essential businesses than places like movie theaters and the gym, for those who can't get the vaccine for health reasons. But I don't see vaccine hesitancy as a good reason to keep this going forever.
