Can we please stop using the word addiction? No one in online discussion agrees on what it means, so it always ends with angry people screaming past each other.
That's why the headline says "literally addictive", not just "addictive". It's addictive in the biological sense.
If you think biological addiction to heroin and chips are equivalent enough to use the same word, I can’t help you.
That's like saying a bicycle is not a mode of transportation because airplanes exist.
