And for good cause, I would say.

As much as I may dislike prohibitionism and the DEA, any kind of smoke
produced by combustion is hardly the healthiest way to administer any
substance.

Just think of carbon oxide.

And, for that matter, I find slightly irritating the temptation to
pretend that more or less obviously recreational uses of a given drug,
as I tend to consider all smoking habits, are being taken for some
vaguely "therapeutical" purpose.

No self-respecting Cohiba or crack smoker would ever think of doing
anything along such lines...
