Specifically, the study itself states "A limitation of this study is the lack of hard evidence for the harms of most products on most of the criteria"

You could apply the same assessment to strawberries, no? Can't estimate the harm caused by something for which we don't have evidence of harm.

It is unclear what your point is. Did somebody claim that strawberries are orders of magnitudes safer than cigarettes?

My point is that there are good reasons to view the number presented in that report as very preliminary and unreliable.
