Please please PLEASE: this question is made from a place of pure curiosity, with no political biases intended. I'm asking because restrictions and prohibitions puts a pressure on the market since the demand never ceases, and someone interested in supply for that demand will do it for massive profits - no matter what. Wouldn't it be the case for any product, be it drugs, alcohol or guns?

It's one of those "critique of pure reason" things. The "logic" here is informed by epidemiology, not hypotheticals or dialectics or anything like that, so those methods of discovery may not be effective in refuting such evidence. In reality it's not as simple as legalize or don't legalize as a binary issue - theres an entire policy framework which comes with those things.
