E-cigarettes aren’t slightly less terrible. They are much less terrible / much better than traditional cigarettes in that they do not cause lung cancer.
Lung cancer is the main problem with cigarettes and e-cigarettes don’t do this. So that’s a huge improvement.
Of course they have other problems but none of them are as bad as a 15x chance of lung cancer [0]
