As opposed to MDMA grass doesn't have the full-blown in-your face effects. Just as it's way easier to become an alcoholic by drinking a few beers daily than by getting drunk off a bottle of vodka.
Moreover - the potential for abuse with grass here is way wider, since it's not that easy to come to work with the MDMA eyeballs, while getting a few puffs during lunchtime isn't such a big deal in certain professions.
The problem with drugs are the people who never tried them - rather than at least just shutting up and voting to legalise the research (to look at the maths), they end up with the same discussion having little evidence _every_single_time_.
I think it's more that the settings in which you use (and buy) MDMA is closer to "harder" drugs than weed.
Also it gets you into the whole party lifestyle. I've personnally used it only twice a few years ago, but the people I took it with (most of us first timers) now spend a huge amount of time planning their trips and talking about drugs, and moved on to LSD and different mixes. Tbh I think it's sad that this has become such a big part of their fun. I enjoyed it, and it definitely changed me, but even though I don't worry at all for them, I don't think that's a very sane way to spend week ends.
I've never been interested in smoking weed, and my edible experience was not fun enough to encourage me to continue there either. But still, I didnt feel so "close" to the drugs world when I was hanging around stoner friends than party-goers.
