Why should they add them?
It's obviously a bad idea, but that's it, no more comment.

i think that drugs was a good idea in fallout games, even if a lot of people didn't used it because they couldn't get out from they ethical code even if it was a computer game

Drugs is not a taboo in today's world(movies, etc) so why not include it in Falout 3 too? A pity that so few people bothered to use drugs in FO2, but I think that was either because it was too time consuming in their minds(a keyboard shortcut for using different drugs/stimpacks would be a nice addition)or because the combat was way too easy. Oh, and mentats was really useful in case of CH or IN checks.

I rarely used drugs on that game except for 3 accaisons

1.) psycho when killing metzger in the slavers guild

2.) buffout when taking on the arm wrestling the I-Want-You-To-Be-Mah-Bitch supermutant in broken hills

3.) Mentats once when i didnt have enough INT to do one of the wright families missions (i really wanted the sierra base)

but drugs were still a good addition, it added to the atmosphere, and fallout wouldnt be the same without it, especially jet

Voodoo can suck my white ass, thats the only drug i never want to see again in my life

No.

They could be viewed as hurting your character on account of the addiction factor. So unless you had a good reason (like those nacho supplied) then it was kind of a bad idea....
