Well i did. I know both people that stayed light smokers throughout their life or managed to go from heavy smoking to light smoking.

That is not to say that it isn't difficult. It certainly is and smoking is highly addictive. There is a wide range of smoking habits and that needs to be considered too. In a transparent communication about risk the point you made, that most people become heavy smokers eventually, is equally important.

I was certain you would answer this.

Problem is that you smoke more than you think, and you're not as much in controle as you think, and it does yourself more harm, both physically and mentally, than you think.

I don't smoke tobacco. And in my life i've smoked maybe ten cigarettes in total.
