The only benefit is weight loss and that is minor and nowhere nearly as bad as the negative consequences. Even if you think you're magically immune to things like cancer and COPD, you'll smell like shit if you are a smoker. You don't notice it because you always smell like it, but everybody around you notices it.
I started smoking in the first place because my girlfriend wanted me to lose weight so that was certainly a benefit but I am trying to find more beyond that.
Sawing off your leg or getting tapeworms also helps you lose weight. I wouldn’t call those benefits tho.
