    But I don’t think the government should be able to decide what an adult puts in their own body.

    What if nicotine is legal, and only the smoking is illegal?

      I think that is what’s being proposed by the policy. I suppose I have two objections to that: Firstly, I think people should be able to make bad choices provided they aren’t harming others. Secondly, it could be counterproductive creating an artifical scarcity for younger generations; like it could end up making smoking cool again like cannabis (arguably) is.
