The test won’t mean a thing unless people actually HAVE antibodies, which means exposure to the virus.

Which has probably been going on since at least December.
Most people shrug this off.

And the big question is how many have been exposed to it and had no or mild or moderate symptoms?

And are we anywhere near herd immunity?

It most certainly WILL tell us something. It will tell us how many actually have antibodies which has the potential to increase the denominator, significantly lower the death rate, eliminate the need for a vaccine that may or may not work and prove that shutting down our economy was a fruitless, expensive gambit if many people were exposed despite the shelter in place order.

Believe me, we are going to want to prove that so we don't have to go through this again.
