I quit not only because of vaping and tobacco-less nicotine pouches, but because I wanted it. If you are buying it for a family member, you can’t make them quit… Hopefully they are wanting to, because you can’t make that decision for them. Just like any other addict.
That’s what irritates me about people like OP’s argument. I vaped to get off cigarettes but I don’t necessarily want to quit nicotine. They conflate all the terrible aspects of smoking with vaping and then point to people not quitting vaping as “proof” that it doesn’t work. Not everyone who picks up vaping is trying to quit nicotine.

I agree with this sentiment. I vaped for years and years because I didn’t actually want to stop.
But once I did make the decision the vape made it considerably easier.
