If we would light up a spliff instead of getting a beer everytime we needed to plug off and hang out I am afraid we could soon as well end up like one of my childhood friends who is not leaving his room anymore for years to grow "ganja" and explore his inner secrets while there is nothing he can contribute to the outside world from his precious dimension

I guess this is the danger, regular use is way too problematic.
Someone drinking a 12 pack every day isn't going to be a productive member of society either. Some people are just losers no matter what vice they get attached to. I've seen lots of people who smoke weed all the time become total losers, and others become successful. I know a lot of people who are alchoholics who are much worse off than the loser potheads. The vice makes no difference. It could be model glue. If someone is weak, they are weak.
