What, you mean like drinking can be, and has been, banned in any number of public places in order to, amongst a number of reason, cut down on the amount of antisocial behaviour that it causes, up to and including harm to other people.

As such, one 'second hand effect' of binge drinking alcohol can be seen to be potential harm to another person, thus showing that the effects of smoking aren't unique.

You were right - it wasn't that complicated
