I see how that's important. On the other hand, it's not as big of a deal to spread the virus if everyone has protection from the symptomatic risks. We should still shelter in place, but even turning active cases into carries would reduce loss of life (presuming we continue regular testing so people can KNOW if they are a carrier)

Assuming everybody got the vaccine in the same instant, which they would not.

We've all seen how people are behaving right now: "Oh I'm young, forget about grandma". How do you think they'd behave knowing that they've been vaccinated? It's important to consider the sociological conditions in which an intervention is deployed. Unfortunately, our present society has a very large number of self-centred individuals.
