You are the one being prescriptive in saying O2 is narcotic, and pointing to Meyer-Overton as a definitive "rule".
I suggested that it's more complex than that, and that a cursory investigation will show a range of views on the issue. You seem to want to polarize the debate and cast me as the antagonist in an attempt to deflect attention from your definitiveness.
I think you misunderstand the game. You choose to be definitive about the narcotic potential of O2, therefore the burden of proof falls to you.
