For them it’s just a re-allocation of marketing resources. Support for burn-based smoking outside the industrialised West, while domestically they’ll shift to promoting their addictive products to other delivery platforms.

Bingo… AND (given the ‘international’ flavor of the list) a possible way into other markets with those delivery systems.
