THEY'RE NOT LETTING MIKE TOUCH WILL BECAUSE IT WOULD BE THEIR WAY OUT!!!
Max, when she tried escaping the first time she heard the music and felt Lucas' hand holding her's in the hospital. Later when she and Holly do acually escape she tells Holly that it was never about the music and actually about the people she loves, it was about Lucas. When the music stopped playing during her first escape attempt the portal doesn't vanish immediately. It only vanishes when Lucas lets go of her hand to rewind the tape. We see it clearly. The tape stops playing, he lets go of her hand, the potal vanishes!! In that specific order!!! Later, when Max finally escapes, Lucas is holding her in his arms. The whole time while he's carrying her the portal is there. It's not about the music, it's not just about the person, it's about the touch!!!
That's why Mike and Will don't touch anymore. Because it might break the curse, it might give whoever of them Vecna has taken a way out!!! That's also why the no touching only starts after Will gets taken in Shock Jock!! Can't have Mike touching Will because it would bring him back!!! Like, if Mike's voice can already easily pull Will back out of his trance, then just imagine what his touch could do!!!
They don't touch for a reason and this is the reason!
So yeah anyways byler kiss to break the other out of Vecna's mind prison and bring them back is true and real!!!
