Your right this isn't weed where use likely increases once it's legal. Just like I don't huff solvents I don't do fentynal because it's stupid. The more harmful a drug is the more the stinger the argument for legalization is. The only reason to have something illegal is to reduce use.

Use likely would increase if legal. This is incredibly harmful stuff.
What you're missing here is addiction. Legalization
would likely increase the number of people addicted significantly. This isn't weed where we're not worried about addiction as a public health issue.
How much taxes would need to be collected to pay for the resulting crisis? You can say current rules aren't working. I'd counter they're working far better than saying "have at 'er". Allowing capitalistic urges to control distribution of an addictive drugs would give us tobacco that's fat, far worse
