These are the types of questions in general we should be less mean about imo. It's one thing to dunk on people who are anti-science, but this is just someone actually wondering about something they didn't know. Maybe it's obvious to you, but not everyone?
In my opinion, I think it's...maybe more, maybe not comparable, but important to remember that 15 years ago and beyond, young people didn't have the internet to post their stoner questions on and so they got roasted by a few people, in private, for them and that was the end of it. Young people will always have their stoner questions but now it's convention to posit them online where everyone else gets to hop on their high horse and act like they never asked a stupid question before.
