Because it cannot be shown that all people who work in smoking enviornments get cancer. Only some might. That's no different than saying that some people might get their asses kicked if drinking is legal.
You said that because most people don't get drunk and beat up on someone. Most people who work in smoky bars do not get lung cancer. Some people might get beat up, and some people might get lung cancer.
