Some interesting studies in that article. Environment and personality has a dominant role.
Rats in boring cage will prefer the drugged water, but put them in a cage with toys and other rats to be social with then their use of drugged water goes down significantly.
And we've seen the same in humans. A significant percent of US Vietnam war soldiers were on heroin, but 90% quickly kicked the habit on returning home to a better place. Likewise for medical patients on temporary strong opiates.
Sure that % of people who do get addicted is significant and need support, but definitely a change in the way of viewing the issue.
