It doesn't matter if using meth will 100% guarantee that someone's life is ruined, people still need to have that freedom. Because denying it actually leads to worse outcomes, and worse negative externalities.

The distinction is whether or not the user harms other people when stoned. Meth addicts become psychotically violent.
