It's about everyone else's lack of choice.
Saying "if you don't like it don't come in" is a stupid argument because smokers are everywhere.
Yes it should be banned from public areas unless the purpose of that area is for smoking. I would be in favour of smoking clubs, places where you could all go stand and smoke in peace. Just not everywhere
smoking ban is back (or trying to be brought back!)
