That’s fine, I agree. I disagree with containment as a strategy but IF you want to practice containment asymptomatic infection is relevant. Altho just so you know there is essentially no evidence that COVID-19 spreads asymptomatically. However I can point you to a bunch of studies strongly demonstrating pre-symptomatic spread (important distinction).

My point is COVID-19 stands for coronavirus infectious disease 2019. If you have no symptoms you have no disease. You don’t have COVID-19 without symptoms, you have a SARS-2 infection. The distinction is incredibly important.
