The fact that it kills so many is a marketing tool. It's viewed as the "strongest" high and the people who die just "didn't know their limit" unlike the user.

Yeah that’s mentioned in there too. Like a dealer who has people die will end up with more customers as they perceive that as a sign of good product.
