It's the difference between you telling guests that you don't allow shoes to be worn in your house and the local government making the wearing of shoes indoors illegal.
I went to Aldi's not too long ago and was told by the cashier they do not enforce wearing of masks because of the abundance of guns and violence. They are happy that the mask mandate is in place though because it does not put them in any position. They can say they are just following the law or the mask is required by law.
