...the coca plant could already do that...?

I invite you to try to grow coca plants in your backyard. You will not succeed, for several reasons...

Tobacco is easier to grow in more places. This makes it easier to grow and produce medical grade cocaine.

Tobacco is a hardier plant that can be grown in more places than coca AFAIK.

Now you can support your community with locally grown and cultivated cocaine, instead of relying on imports. Lmao

Lol! They're so fragile - one or two hiding places quickly come to mind.

"Mexico doesn't produce white eggs"
