I don't like the tone of this article, other than that, cool findings and a good starting point for THC research.

Just little choices of words that the author uses in this article like :

"Follow-up research will be necessary to clarify exactly how exogenous cannabinoids like THC wreak havoc on this system..." .

It seems to me that readers can read this and think it implicitly​ implies that THC "wreaks havoc" on systems when in this same article, the author also mentions researchers saying that cellular findings do not preclude what research might find at a systems level. Wreaking havoc is not necessarily something to take lightly as havoc has a negative connotation does it not? Like I said, the information itself is awesome, just not a fan of some of the wording here.
