Common, we “managed” the way that one can, if necessary, “manage” Pesach without matzos and wine, the way one can “manage” without talis and tefillin, the way someone who is not a vegetarian can nevertheless “manage” shabbos without meat, if he has to. There are a lot of things we can “manage” without; that is no reason to do without them if they are available and affordable.

Some people may find that some things they thought they needed were in fact unnecessary, and may continue to do without them even after this is over. But that is not the general case.
