That's the problem. It's not meth. People who are prescribed Adderall, concerta, or whatever should not be treated like they're "basically doing meth". That is what happens when we keep letting people think it's the same.

Why does this distinction matter for the average person? Street meth and concerta are both equally bad for neurotypical people.

Wut. They are not equally bad at all. "Street meth" is objectively worse. And therein lies the problem. You're very confident in your understanding of these drugs and you're treating them as they are the same. When people do that, they also associate drug addicts and everything negative about drugs to the notion of taking prescribed ADHD medicine.
