No, it was a political strategy that involved an end-run around an archaic Federal drug system where moving anything out of Schedule 1 is nearly impossible. Schedule 1 status was causing distress to medical patients that needed access to cannabis for medical purposes. You can find old youtube videos still of law enforcement officers arresting patients when they had days left to live.
Don't look at your own cannabis use at the reason MJ was made legal for medical reasons in some states. Actual real patients demanded it.
You happened to benefit from the success of their strategy.
Not a BS ploy at all. An impressively well conceived strategy that has slowly worked.
