In fairness, vaping marijuana and specifically vaping "the lower end of pure sativa" is not at all representative of the wider cannabis smoking public. In places where it's illegal in particular, you're stuck with whatever variant is currently in circulation with your local dealer and those are almost invariably high strength hybrids - because those are just more economical in a black market economy where the cash crop has ideally as little of a footprint as possible.

I hate it personally because I turn into an abject moron when I'm totally stoned - which is hard to avoid when your options are so limited. If I had a choice, I would probably go for a low strength sativa as well and maybe the occasional indica when I'm suffering from pain.
