Yes, the circle is my point. You can’t argue that it’s always bad for people’s health so you can’t study it. Being known bad for people’s health just makes it more important to find a way

Did you read the article? Do you even know what we are talking about?

The article specifically says how they managed to study drunk people without telling them to drink, and it's surprisingly easy: wait for people to get drunk on their own and then study the effects.

Kinda surprised that I have to spell that out for you.

Almost like I brought it around full circle , after posts questioning the ethics of studying it

No, you didn't. You just didn't understand what everyone else was talking about.
