I also think there are some mental health / social benefits to recreational substance use when done properly. talking about the most negative effects for 10% of the population is excludes the 60% of the population that realizes these benefits without experiencing the problems you are talking about.

It's a big old "yeah but!" from gun advocates, who do not want to talk about places where gun restrictions have been successful.
