The metric here is "decided to go to the hospital". So the "basic rules" are not really controlled for. If folks who take shrooms know their potential, they might plan their trip better.
I suppose the critical inputs might be something like "sum of [actual toxic effects of drug times ease of overdose, effects of drug w/symptoms that match actual illness]". If the actual toxicity dominates the reported hospital visits, shrooms should win, right?
