That's not confusing, really. If you have a friend who doesn't smoke, do you persist in lighting up in front of them if they ask you not to? What if they get drunk? I mean, that's bad for you too -- why should a little smoke bother them? Maybe you don't believe the same medical garbage they do about cigarettes...do they really have a right to suddenly get all religious about the issue? Why do they persist in pushing their values down your throat?

Unwieldy parallelism, but you get the idea.
