We're talking past each other. I'm talking about perceived industry wide reputational damage by the public as a cause for distrust. Who cares about fallacies? Beliefs triumph over logic. Public perception > truth. Further reputational damages are not unwarranted. Thalidomide is an old example. There are many more recent ones outside of opioid. You're free to look up actual court cases.
