While I totally agree with you, and try to avoid imposing on others with my vaping (albeit less harmful than cigarettes, people don't like the smell, the clouds, the scare, etc.) I think that the damage caused by secondhand smoke outdoors is probably negligible. It's not lingering in the air the same way it does indoors.

It doesn't have to linger if it's blowing towards me, either by wind or your actions - it's still getting in my hair and clothes and food and making them all stink. I totally can't understand anyone simultaneously saying that European cafes are better because (a) better tasting coffee and (b) more smoke around. If you're smoking while you drink your coffee then you're ruining the flavour anyway.
