They have reported on the mental health issues in the manner which I talked about earlier. Yes, they do discuss this too.

Stronger and less pure forms are a worrying issue. However it is often cited as justification for its legal status, however I do not see how prohibition would remedy the situation, it quite clearly isn't, I think it is another nail in the coffin of the legal status of the drug. If we treated it the same way that we treat alcohol, we could control and monitor the strength and quality of the product, it would be easier to inform the user of these attributes and give them legal recourse if the supplier failed to produce the drug to these standards.

Getting the drug to a place where this could happen however would take some time and effort.
