Guavanaut posted:Apparently they're going to ban slim cigarettes too, and I have no idea why. Several possible reasons. Slim cigarettes are becoming popular in some parts of the world. As part of an incrementalist attempt to stop nicotine use altogether, ending a more popular category of product would make sense. Slims have also been marketed as healthier, and there's been some research suggesting something about their structure actually increases harms of smoking- though I've not seen the research in detail myself. It's akin to the "low tar" and montholated cigarette categories.
