Thanks!
Cool article; I posted it here:
How White Lighters Got Such a Bad Rap

Isn’t luck a myth to begin with? This is like saying knocking on wood is a myth. That’s inherent to all superstition.

Interesting, it was yellow lighters in my neck of the woods, so I always got yellow lighters as people were way less likely to steal them.

The manufactures of those "disposable" vapes would have no problem doing this.

Likely marketing people don't like the image of giving people drugs directly and I'm not sure anyone gives a shit about non nicotine vapes.

Unfun fact: For tobacco production, specifically drying the leaves, are quite often used wood from local rainforest. Not very enviro friendly. The slovakian forest protection organisation VLK was working on some outreach materials about this topic but haven't finished them, but I have read the draft.

Also, smokers not just die because of smoking. They die in bad health that often needs years of treatment, which can be very expensive, but also polluting and diverging resources from productive work... I am not sure about the pluses and minuses and final calculation, but it is definitely not super clear.

So no, smoking is definitely not a good way to protect environment.
