I quit – Peak indifference, big tobacco
> I don't know the health effects of pure nicotine (say, in liquid form) vs caffeine, but one is certainly much more addictive than the other.
Which one did you have in mind, and why do you say certainly?

Nicotine is more addictive than caffeine. I'm not going to find peer-reviewed, double-blind studies to back up my claim. I'm going to go with the anecdotes I've heard for decades and from personal experience.

I'm not going to argue with your opinion -- but I suspect you are conflating tobacco (usually smoked) with nicotine.

Isn't nicotine the primary addictive chemical in cigarettes and vapes
