But that's a very different argument than making saying cannabis causes schizophrenia. And if we remove it from society, we'll see drops in rates of schizophrenia. I don't believe there's any evidence that actually could support that. So... It's just a nuanced argument, and this is a good thing about more of a long-form podcast is it allows for nuance.

Okay. So, yes. So going back to just the idea with the indica sativa thing. So the indica and sativa –

names at least from everything i've understood from everyone that i talked to and being in this field is it's those are botanical terms that largely refer to shape of the plant the you know the way the bud grows blah blah blah they do not track with chemical composition in any way um in fact nick jacomas has done like a lot of analysis of like thousands and thousands of

different kinds of cannabis that have been submitted for kind of biochemical analysis to understand THC, CBD, terpenes, minor cannabinoid content. And essentially, his work, as well as from all the people who have done the genetics on this, is The variability that exists within what someone calls an indica or a sativa is greater than the variability that there is between them.

And there is no such thing as a chemical profile that exists in something that's a sativa versus something that's an indica.

I mean, I think in Nick's analysis, there was like a couple of terpenes that may have loaded on a little bit onto things that were sativas, but there was tons of sativas that didn't fall into that bracket. Okay.

Yeah, I would, my honest opinion is this is expectancy bias. This is all expectancy bias.

20 people tell you that taking this makes you calm. You cannot remove your expectation bias from the fact that when you consume it, you feel calm. Like, and this has been, I think one of the most common things with, with cannabis is like this whole area is so ripe with these expectancy biases that people have about what they assume.
