Ditto. I'll hear people disparage because "why did they get addicted in the first place" and it frustrates me - I used to work IT for a company with a dedicated facility for people with criminal records. I met many recovered addicts and the most common cause of their addiction was being prescribed opioids.
But I don't think people need an excuse anyway. Life isn't perfect, far from it.
Once you adjust it works well. The whole "find something at random to watch" paradigm is not really how *arr works, but if a coworker mentions a show I can have it ready when I get home.
