Addiction hurts others though. You can’t get physically addicted to most of the things you listed.

True, mostly. People do get addicted to sugar and alcohol. Though it appears about 30% of people get addicted to MJ use [1] which makes them moody or restless. Does that really hurt others, more so than someone not getting their coffee in the morning? I get moody without my coffee. The other issues they list appear to only affect the person with the dependency.
I suppose if we go down the rabbit hole, if a person is so moody they lose their job and they have children dependent on them, that's a problem. I would put that in the same category as drinking on the job though.
