Depends on where you are. In some countries smoking is quite widespread and is done outdoors, so definitely not confined in this case.
Only to be replaced by vaping outside. I agree if the space is confined and shared it shouldn't be mixed with smokers and non smokers but if you're in a public street you have the option to avoid the smoking and be out of 3rd party smoke range. You're always going to have problematic smokers/vapers just like anything else, no law is going to stop this
Some would argue they hate people drinking anywhere but licensed indoor spaces
