what's the ulterior motive (if any) to banning menthol cigarettes? I get the vaping ban, since it encroaches on cigarette sales. but menthols? is it really *just* about public health?

I know the racism argument, but "they just want to take away something Black people like" feels a bit weak to me, since I doubt they'd want to slash profits to do so. perhaps there's another racism angle, but I'm not convinced by that specific one
