If you read the article, I believe it is more of a "we are studying it and there is a lot to do" than "drugs are good".

I think a very important part is:

> For example, I’m interested in the effects of THC versus CBD. We don't have any of that information in the UK Biobank. Most people in this study were using cannabis quite a while ago, and cannabis at that time looked very different from what’s available today. That context really matters. It’s a complex picture.

That's kind of an odd thing to point out. If my buds are stronger, I use less of them.

It's like having a bottle of beer vs bottle of whiskey. I don't exactly imbibe them in the same way, do I?

That's funny.

I know plenty of people who haven't really reduced their consumption as things have gotten stronger. Their tolerance just went up.

The researcher pretty much says "it is very complex, many things are difficult to control, so we should take all this with a grain of salt".

Your answer: "What a weird thing to say, they should just ask me; I know."

i see your point but think about it this way. A bowl or a joint holds a certain amount. People fill mostly the same amount and dont regulate it by thc content
