The fact that drugs are neurotransmitters and act on nerve circuits is a secondary issue. The main question is that the formation of these synaptic connections was the path to the survival of the species. Everything that a person likes through sensations is useful for him from the point of view of evolution, for example, sweets are a signal for concentrated carbohydrates, thus a person, without knowing anything about biochemistry, supplies himself with energy. This is a fixed associative connection, unconditioned reflexes.
This means that narcotic substances are useful.
In particular, tobacco and cocaine, for example, are powerful antiseptics, and a person can get rid of parasites in this way.
Tobacco smoke and opium can be powerful antioxidants.
And so on.
Therefore, drugs are useful, and if we claim that they are harmful, we are trying to refute the wisdom of nature itself.
