I think you're digging to deep into my phrasing. The majority of people I know that vape would prefer if they didn't. They always talk about trying to quit, but how it's very hard for them. Maybe that doesn't apply to the people you know. They don't like that they have an addiction now. Nicotine has some benefits, but it doesn't seem worth the cost for the majority of ways it's delivered. At no point do I think that we should "bar" nicotine use, but I think it's a safe bet to say that most people who have this addiction now would rather not have the addiction.
I had a similar response to a comment I made about sports betting and how my peers have gotten very into it and are losing money and forming compulsions. They are free individuals and can do what they want, but I still think it's a generally bad thing to introduce dangerous addictions to more people.
I also think that alcohol is generally bad for you too. I don't think that should be banned either, but, generally speaking, most people would live healthier lives without it. That doesn't mean I think it shouldn't be legal and accessible.
