I loved this point. Slippery slope counterpoint for safety's sake.

Cancerous tumors have shown to not only grow big and fast but avoid immune response.
One way tumors avoid immune response is to stop producing certain molecules that immune response cells (cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTLs) a type of adaptive immune response) recognize to attack.
While cannabis has been linked with fighting cancer/tumors, the precise mechanisms are not well understood. This study has shown one mechanism: certain cannabinoids (mainly d9 THC and in this study CBG is highlighted) can prevent the tumors from not producing those molecules -- reverting from the invisible tumor to now one the immune response bodies will see and attack.

Has to go to Horizon Zero Dawn
Because the first game at least was specifically a lore game, almost detective work, which made a game about "dinosaur shaped machines" make almost perfect sense

3 of the backup oxygen supply were manually turned on after the "explosion" which was really more of a depressurized expulsion and some fire. The ?pilot? also tried maneuvers. Some of the crew therefore were possibly* alert and awake at least (others probably passed out), possibly right until impact with the water, and then instant death.
But it all happened in a few minutes, and mostly they would have been hyper focused on their training and fixing the problem.
