is there something i'm missing? will this prevent the use of ammonia by the appropriate operators or something?

You're right. What the hell was I thinking when I posted this?
I just thought it was an interesting story. And I think if we start looking drug addiction problems as medical instead of criminal, we might see some real progress on the war on drugs.
But we don't, so we have to resort to this. I'm not saying it is oppressive. It's just too bad that it has to be done.
