I've identified and/or recognized just a few really good reasons for wanting to be totally free of nicotine: lower insurance costs (a biggie!); cardiovascular issues that nicotine complicates in the same way that caffeine does, like cold hands and feet (popsicle paws!) -- my own cardiovascular cross to bear, or other cardio issues; and of course the ever-popular "I want to be free of all substances" (always a puritan favorite), which is one I have a hard time understanding, but ok, if that's how you feel, more power to ya.
What I do NOT recognize is there being some automatic necessity for all vapers to treat vaping as just another form of NRT, to be automatically quit after some length of time. And now that we're finding that nicotine isn't the "big bad" we've always been told, I really don't understand or recognize any reason why, for the vast majority of us, it necessarily needs to be reduced or eliminated. As several have pointed out, they're much more likable with nicotine, than without it. Some of us have family histories that predispose us to falling victim to some form of dementia, as we age, and nicotine may help to avoid or delay that; and in fact, nicotine *may* be helpful for a wide range of other issues, from bipolar disorder to ADD to anxiety/depression to weight loss.
Just recently there was a thread titled "WHEN you reduce your nicotine to zero, what then?" and I resent the hell out of that; it seems like a "troll" question to me -- as if it's understood that all of us must hate nicotine and wish to dispense with it at any cost, as soon as possible. I have ZERO plans to eliminate nicotine; I really don't even have plans to reduce it to some negligible level, UNLESS it ever begins to cause me more problems than it solves -- I'd like to get back down to 10mg from my current 11.5mg, simply for my own convenience in mixing, using 100mg nic. Those of you vaping zero or near-zero nicotine levels, bully for you, I'm sure you're very happy about that -- but that outcome is neither automatic nor even desirable for a great many of us. I don't go around throwing mental rocks at those who still vape 18mg or 24mg or some other high level, and I'd really appreciate it if the ANTZ's campaign to mentally condition ALL nicotine users to the idea of reducing and quitting all usage of nicotine would CEASE, especially here at ECF.
The world is full of things to worry about, but the use of nicotine is NOT one of them -- if you're not a card-carrying ANTZ. It's already been shown pretty clearly that even the TRACE of nicotine that bystanders might encounter from our vapor is in no way harmful even to those who haven't chosen to consume it -- even children -- it's just a TRACE, not enough to be significant statistically or in any other way. Worry about your batteries, or the chemicals in your flavors, or how pretty your quadro-honkin coil is, but geezus pete, quit badgering yourselves and everyone else about nicotine! Enough about nicotine already!!!

Not to mention I have other hobbies that I prefer to vaping, like traditional archery, poker, movies/TV shows, and building/making things
