To reiterate:
A: Everything is poisonous
B: The dose makes the poison.
Water is poisonous in high enough quantities. It’s relative to the substance. You could easily make the argument that addictive substances are more poisonous, particularly if you agree addiction is a disease. My problem is not differentiating between physical and mental addiction. You can demonize a substance whose withdrawal causes physical illness much easier than one that might make you feel off a few days. There’s a huge difference in likelyhood of being able to stop.
