"SR is not needed for over 99% bitcoin users"
SR is a large part of btc economy. A part that is actually not about speculation. I don't like junkies, but at least they are using btc the way it should be.
Not everyone who gets some shrooms every other month is a junkie. Not everyone who enjoys a glass of wine in the evening is a drinker.
It's offtopic, but the question on this answer is much more difficult than "Yes" or "No". No, medically he isn't addict, but the law is not on his side. Anyway, any illegal uses of bitcoin giving more reasons to goverment to close it.
