Prohibition is actually THE biggest driving force behind making drugs more potent for various reasons (one being that potency reduces transport costs for the same effective dose), so it seems implausible that legalization would be worse on this count.

Worse still, inconsistent potency. "I usually do 3 of these" might work OK until one day the stuff is 1.5x as strong and you've done nearly 5.

Some people I knew died of overdoses. The drug using friends of the deceased would then immediately seek out the dead person's drug dealer because they sold the "good stuff."
