What the steward should’ve done first is upbraid the Dad for not wearing the mask over his nose. He exhales more air than the tiny little girl, therefore he is adding a greater viral load to the cabin environment, significantly increasing the odds that the next seat’s Grandma will die. If the Dad would not cover his nose, /then/ eject them from the plane, mid-flight if necessary - many lives are at stake.
