As long as you think the same arguments apply to toilet bowl cleaners, oven cleaners, windshield washer fluid, tylenol/paracetamol, antifreeze and visine, this makes sense.

Yes, I think the same argument applies to everything. That's not to say all hazards are equal or all substances need identical regulations.

This is a non informative answer. Let's talk numbers, is 20 years a reasonable time to be incarcerated for a sheet of LSD? How many years is appropriate for a pack's worth of hand smoke, then? How about carbon monoxide from driving year round?

People don't experiment with household cleaners like they do with pyschoactive drugs.
