I do not have the knowledge to doubt your points here, but there are countless people who smoke and do not end up on artificial breathing apparatus in their later years.

I do not like being around smokers and understand it is not good for you, but your text here sounds very extreme.

Not everyone who smokes gets COPD. Just like not everyone gets lung cancer.

It's just that you don't know beforehand if you'll end up as one of the lucky ones totally unaffected, so why gamble with your life?
