Nothing is inherently an addiction. You can smoke a cigarette without it being an addiction.

I don't think I implied that. Of course, but the ability to regulate usage is hampered by nicotine. That does not mean one cigarette and you're addicted though.

No, nicotine is actually addictive in that it creates physical dependency.
