legitimate

Yea, THC vapes are also illegal in most jurisdictions. People still buy and use them.

there’s some unknowns in the industry, but it’s been around for 20 years now

Yet I know of no studies that would look into health of people who are exclusively vaping across even a 5 year span. It's not "some unknowns", we barely know anything about it.

e liquid are all GRAS

This is one of the most wild takes I've heard. Something being safe to eat or put on your skin does not mean you can inhale it and expect no harm. One of the most common examples would be benzaldehyde, which is used as a food additive and in vapes, as a gas it causes irritation to respiratory passages.

The worst part is that sometimes you don't even have to specify a lot of it in the list of ingredients. You can read article 4.2.2.1 of this document, for example.

it’s a means of lowering risk

The best way of lowering the risk is using proper, well established methods for quitting smoking before resorting to something like vaping.
