Asbestos is still used today in some instances. Should’ve used heroin or something

Oh? Which industry regularly uses this as a part of standard business for consumers? Unless... you're just pretending to be too obtuse to understand the extremely obvious implication here.
As with asbestos, it (diamorphine) has some limited legitimate uses.

Ah, so "essentially none because this was a pretty bad attempt at a retort". Gotcha!
