Nonsense.

1. Some people want to do cocaine or ecstasy a couple of times a year.

2. They don’t die from a fentanyl overdose.

3. Success!

I accept that use case but I don’t think “safer recreational drug use” is the heroic victory that the researchers or the scientific press were hoping for.

Preventing people from accidentally dying from overdose seems like a pretty worthy goal.

I feel like the recreation cocaine/Molly user base is much higher and preventable deaths there are much easier to well… prevent.
