For most people it’s “get rid of the drugs I don’t like but keep the drugs I like.”

I'm pretty sure theres a lot of people who would get rid of heroin even if they know they might enjoy the experience or "like" it.

Maybe. But what about the rest of the opioids? Then you get some kind of cancer where you need them. There is no simple solution here.

Heroin is an easy target because it is only used recreationally (in the US, at least), so we don't have any legitimate patients who'd be impacted by eliminating it.
