Thats the huge asterisk.
A successful vaporization requires temperatures of 150-200°C with a max of 250 for self-experimenting enthusiasts.
So when these studies include the chemicals caused by pyrolysis, they're not studying realistic e-cigarette use.
A good analogy would be studying the consumption of improperly distilled alcohol that included methanol- EXCEPT you wouldn't be able to taste the methanol in bad liquor, and you'd absolutely be able to taste burnt e-liquid.
