Setting aside for a moment the fact that chronic, day-in-day-out long term use of N95s has never been studied for potential ill effects, why is it so difficult to discern any reduction in community transmission from Germany's N95 mandates?
There are professions that've been doing this for decades without any apparent negative impacts.
They've been used extensively by enough people the burden of proof lies on the folks claiming they're somehow dangerous at this point.
Almost nobody doing industrial work with comparable PPE doesn't spend at least 1-2 hours of a typical workday out of the PPE.
The linked PDF has an example of a typical workday when removing asbestos, note how many times it involves putting on or taking off the PPE.
I'm not making any claim about COVID mask mandates, other than your examples seeming irrelevant to "chronic, day-in-day-out long term use of N95s".

Which leaves many thousands of hours in PPE, for many thousands of people. If the N95 masks caused health issues, we'd know. If someone can demonstrate a) a mechanism and b) any evidence for such an effect, I'm all ears.
