Your earlier comment implied that there was something specific about 19th-century doctors that prevented them from realizing how dangerous cocaine was. Today we know it’s dangerous. What did you intend to say was different about doctors back then?
You’re answering a different question. First you said 19th-century doctors were especially willpowered, then you said willpower is also a factor in today’s doctors. Now you say the difference is not willpower but the population examined. You’re not only not giving any evidence for you claims; you’re running in circles.
I think he’s saying that the original population didn’t notice it because of high willpower, then it get into the mainstream population who didn’t have as high willpower, at which point we began to get data on the effects in a low willpower situation.
I never said it doesn’t today.
