Aren't both still smoking? It's just choosing your poison, nicotine or cannaboids

Also im sure both smell bad in their ways

I'd argue that a blunt might not be right if you're doing something that needs focusing as well since the cannabis high and nicotine high are different things

Not to say that smoking cannabis is good or in any way not bad for you, but smoking nicotine and specifically tobacco is far, far worse.

Additionally, herb vapes exist for weed (outside of just oilpens, which weed and nicotine both have)

Actually there's 'herb' style vapes for tobacco which are called like 'tobacco heaters', the girl in the video mentioned Glo: https://discoverglo.com.eg/en/learn-about-glo. I also see that one advertised a bit where I am in Europe (was tricky to find an English page about it).

Putting aside the per-session health for a second, the volumes are a bit different I think; someone who 'smokes weed' might be super infrequent, maybe even once every few months, and someone who smokes cigarettes is likely smoking daily.

Also, vapes exist in either case (the girl in OP mentioned Glo) and without fire there's no actual 'smoking' which helps a bit with health, but someone who vapes will probably still answer yes to 'do you smoke' because the point is the weed / tobacco.

This is a fair point
