Tobacco does have some "benefits" but they are heavily outweighed by the damage and the risk.
Smoking weed is not safe. The mental gymnastics you are trying to do to justify it is borderline comedy to me. Marijuana has a ton of tar in it, way more than most tobacco, and that is why they say it's bad. The tar from smoking plant matter is what does a lot of the damage to your lung tissue.
This is all from somebody that used to smoke cigarettes (18 years) and actually does enjoy marijuana from time to time (in edible form).
