Yes, there is something to be said about at least being more explicit on warning people about the dangers of consuming high % THC products.
An industry that can profit off addiction is being observed drastically increasing the level of an addictive substance in their product. You expect consumers to be perfectly informed. I don't.

If the behavior of an industry seems malicious enough and its public health impact adverse enough, regulation is necessary.
