I think you're misunderstanding my point. It's not that people will go to doctors and use it recreationally instead of getting off the black market. I'm sure that will happen to a certain degree but as you say it's not a huge driver to restricting treatments.
It's that millions of people will be taking it when they never would have before from a doctor, and it is definitely addictive. Drug companies have an insane incentive to down play/hide studies that show it is addictive.
I don't think it's true that using this as directed would cause addiction. But even if it were true, addiction treatment is a better outcome than a funeral any day of the week.
