From the guy that first provide an anecdote.
Anyhow I can assure you that taking edibles daily is certainly worse than have a beer a week. For some they may need it for pain possibly and that is valid but the majority of daily users are using for the high. Or better put, can’t operate well without a daily hit.
Your usage of majority here is pretty disingenuous, well frankly your entire point.
To do exactly what you’re doing: The majority of drinkers who have a beer a week are alcoholics who can’t operate well without a daily drink.
Not to mention to liken having a beer a week to daily edibles is insane. A more apt comparison would be a drink or two a day vs an edible a day. Or at the other end, an edible a week vs a beer a week.
Anyhow I can assure you that taking edibles daily is certainly worse than have a beer a week.
This is a crucial point, how can you? Overlooking the major discrepancy in frequency of use.
The active ingredient in edibles is an analogue to something endogenous to the human body, alcohol is just a toxic substance.
