A link to the study for any like me who found this fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

Makes me wonder if we could make vapes more effective at smoking cessation by adding MAOI as well as nicotine.

They are already very effective at smoking cessation, and the inclusion of MAOIs could make it more difficult to stop vaping.

Yeah you're probably right, I'm just being greedy. Vaping Nicotine never hit me the same as smoking, but that's probably a good thing.
