Opiates are not some mystical category of drugs that somehow have their own laws of addiction that are different from other drugs, although the particulars may be unique to different substances. Addiction has to do with a person's relationship to a substance or activity, it is not completely based on the chemical structure of a substance although that certainly plays a role. How many people go into a hospital and get morphine for whatever reason, and then leave without ever touching it again? My friend was having leg surgery and didn't like taking the morphine because it made him drowsy. Yes, some people actually do not care for the effects of opiates. Some people prefer stimulants. Some prefer psychedelics. Etc, etc, etc.
If you take a group of opiates lovers then yes it may not be easy to find somebody who is able to moderate them but this sample is not necessarily representative of all drug users or the general population.
Any drug can be used moderately and any drug can be used heavily. And casual use of any substance is not guaranteed to just be one step in the process to addiction later on.
