I did read the thread. I was responding more to this:

Would we give it the same scrutiny and pushback? Probably not, because most people don't smoke these days and that expectation has been normalized.

So, no, we wouldn't, because it's an actually defensible protection of the property to prohibit something that clearly causes permanent damage while the other is simply being at home all day. And only specifically at home while working, which makes it even less defensible since the act of sitting at your computer typing and clicking your mouse to work is no more destructive to the unit than sitting at your computer typing and clicking your mouse to post on Facebook or play a game.

Hence, they're not even remotely comparable.
