Light it up gang
I wouldn't exactly say everyone wins. Most of the current, smaller scale growers are going to be pushed out of the market due to big money coming in and taking over everything. I can tell you most growers in my area don't want legalization because it can potentially put them out of business or drastically bring prices down.
"Our research uses an isolated chemical compound and using the correct concentration is vital. Cancer patients should not use cannabis to self-medicate, but I hope that our research will lead to a safe synthetic equivalent being available in the future."
So your saying Marijuana doesn't kill cancer but cannabinoids in Marijuana kill cancer cells... OK, so Marijuana does kill cancer...Ya people should really stop saying that "marijuana"/pot/weed kills cancer.
What kills cancer is cannabinoid compounds introduced directly into the tumour. It's not the same thing, at all, as getting high.

Read your quote. Why shouldn't they use cannabis? I personally know people with cancer that use cannabis, and "getting high" DOES help them. If not to kill cancer cells, emotionally and mentally it does, but nobody is saying smoke a joint to kill cancer. They people doing research on this are looking at individual and combinations of cannabinoid profiles. Why would they have to create a synthetic "safe" version when the natural one is already safe? Oh yeah, profit.
