The fact remains, in the 1980s in Germany if you walked into any business office there was a choking blue haze like in 1960s America. It was inescapable.
It was starkly obvious if you traveled back and forth between the US and Germany in the 1980s. In the 80s US businesses had done a good job of pushing the smokers out on the porch.
I never thought that would work, but it did, and smoking became generally recognized as the filthy habit that it was.
My '72 Dodge hasn't seen a cigarette since the 1980s and still smells like smoke :-)
