Seems simple enough. There many reports from authoritative investigations that cannabis is a gateway drug that initiates rather than satiates. Nothing ever starts with the end result.

Ignoring empirical evidence is at best naive. A quick google supports.

In the case of alcohol you just drink more product more often and for longer. In the case of cannabis, social pressures combine to change product to serious mind altering poisons which leads to death. Or worse.

To be honest, I thought that argument was well established.
