Yes, and it has sadly already contributed to the death of one little girl - Sara Sharif. Even more sadly, lots of people are so intent on signalling their extreme virtue (or not offending Muslims) that they won’t hear of hijabs being banned (even in primary schools) and from one recent MN thread, are happy to enforce hijab wearing in Muslim girls even as non Muslims. (A thread where OPs son asked his friend who had come over if he could see her hair and OP , instead of having a word with the son for asking an inappropriate question, firmly told the girl not to uncover her hair and then came here to tell us).
In a normal world, if something had already been used to aid and abet abuse of a child and there was a risk of it being used by others, we’d be having a conversation about how to prevent that but we’re not.
I think Kemi is absolutely right not to speak to women with their faces covered. I struggle with speaking to someone with sunglasses on - a full face covering is disrespectful to the person you want help from.
Where there are scenarios that women are being forced to wear a face covering by others from their family or community, it just strengthens the argument for a full ban here. Like they do in some Muslim countries.
