THCA requires heat to be activated into THC. In fact most strains of cannabis contain hardly any THC at all; it’s almost entirely THCA. That's why eating raw buds won’t get you high. Only when you ignite or vape the plant material does it get converted.

With the smoking, most of the active ingredients literally just burn up, which includes producing the nasty stuff like tar and the smoke particles. Which is something tobacco smokers kinda crave for. While good vapes have very precise temperature controls, allowing for evaporation of different cannabinoids and terpenes without literally burning up the plant.
