I don' t smoke. Or chew. Or stuff cigars up my ass (is that a thing? I'll bet there' s a dedicated web site).
I don't allow it in my house or car..I barely tolerate it outdoors. (Don' t be pitching your butts in my yard).
But - creating second class citizens hardly seems like an equitable way of handling a distasteful habit.
On the contrary, it seems like the best way. In addition to banning tobacco use by people born after 2004, I’d like to see a rider attached to the law making it a protected right to douse public smokers with concentrated air freshener, or (best case) animal feces.

Your edit: I would LOVE to see the tobacco ban follow the Prohibition model. Imagine it - gangs of licensed law-enforcement types raiding illegal smoke-easies, carting people off to jail, smashing up tobacco dens, and so on. I’d even be ok with the creation of a new segment of organized crime for cops to go after. Just thinking about is giving me a tingle in my special place.
