I think one of the biggest problems with MDMA is that what you are getting is not always MDMA[1]

Better access to drug testing for consumers could help here.

I agree, but this isn't a problem with MDMA, but with illicit drugs in general. When you buy cannabis, LSD, cocaine, or anything else on the street, you have no way of knowing what's in it for sure unless you have a way to test it.

This is one of the big arguments for legalization / decriminalization. It won't be an issue with the MDMA these trial patients are receiving for example.
