You've said, "Some strains and CBD are not addictive. . . ." The fact is there is nothing in any strain of marijuana (and CBD) which is identifiable as having a biologically addictive property. Anyone who manifests addictive behavior related to marijuana use is actually manifesting the same kind of psychological deviation present in those who become "addicted" to such things as chocolate, Coca Cola, sex, etc.[...]
Medical use is effective. Cannabis is used to get people off harder drugs. Some strains and CBD are not addictive as they have very little THC. People cannot overdose on them either.

I once knew a young woman who got out of bed at 2AM and drove twelve miles (round) to an all-night convenience store to buy two liters of Pepsi -- and drank half of one on the way home. While that does not compare with the compulsions of a strung-out heroin junkie there is no question that it is addictive behavior. Psychologically manifest, but addictive nonetheless.
