The author's logic isn't "Steve Jobs took LSD, you should too", it's "Steve Jobs took LSD and credits it as a crucially important intellectual experience in his life, so maybe you should too." I'm pretty sure Jobs didn't say the same thing about being adopted.

The author's argument is more along the lines of:

  P1 = Steve Jobs was a success.
  P2 = Steve Jobs took LSD.
