Conflicting info on life expectancy reduction?
In Cigarette#Smokers, it is first stated that each cigarette reduces life expectancy by 20 minutes, but later it says each cigarette reduces life expectancy by 11 minutes. Is there a reason for having two different, partially conflicting values for the same data point? It's a bit jarring to read, at least an acknowledgement of some kind could help readability.
