When do addicts become connoisseurs of the substance or service they are addicted to? And when not?
Inspired by coffee addicts, though many other examples exist: alcohol, video games.
Simplest answer might be when they have disposable income. But it seems there might be something more going on.
Obviously, it helps if the addicted-to item is legal, allowing producers to differentiate.
Is all connoisseur behavior a symptom of an underlying addiction? What otherwise would incentivize caring enough to learn to distinguish among items?
