People rob and murder people for all sorts of reasons. But drug addicts have to commit fewer crimes if their drugs are cheap and easy to get.

And legal drugs have known potencies, and aren’t mixed with other more addictive drugs.

Don’t compare decriminalization to legalization, they are entire different things. Decriminalization still suffers from higher addiction and death rates because selling the drugs is still illegal.
