But relative risk is irrelevant. They still don't somehow cancel out. My aspartame consumption poses some risk to me, and that risk doesn't depend on the habits of the person telling me about the risks of aspartame.

That’s not the point, there’s no claim it cancels out. The point is about the risk tolerance. We all take risks in our life, and the risks posed by aspartame are lower than that of alcohol.
