so are we just gonna ignore that cannabinoids are included in this.

Flagrant violation of the rules knowing that the US national agencies won't give a fuck. The rules themselves might be questionable (but really, cannabinoids are still illegal in most of the world...), but it demonstrates that US athletes feel like they can basically ignore the rules because nobody will enforce them.

well when half or more of the people who admitted to using PEDs were using cannabinoids it certainly cuts into your argument that there's a wide ranging conspiracy across dozens of disciplines to encourage doping.
