I mean, I think psilocybes (and LSD!) should be fully deregulated, sure :) However: (1) If you trust your illicit psilocybin sources, OR already decriminalizes personal use drugs (Measure 110), so, if this isn't your cup of (psilocybin) tea, there's nothing stopping you from doing precisely what you propose. (2) If you have a trip sitter you trust and is willing to sit with you, there's nothing stopping you from bringing them to said center. Ostensibly having someone experienced around can't hurt, and is pretty likely better than what most people are getting most of the time. Surely we can agree that it's reasonable that some people would get more out of a trip if they have professional guidance, and it's not just a safety ("is this person going to rob me/assault me") issue? Perhaps a problem is one of assumptions: I think this is set up to allow recreational use but encourage therapeutic use, coupled with the idea that therapeutic use is aided (made possible?) by the presence of trained staff.
