So, admission to responsible weed usage and responsible alcohol usage will get different results.
I have a clearance and almost all of my coworkers talked openly about drinking too much on occasion, but no one would say they touched weed

A breathalyzer test can determine if you are under the influence of alcohol _at this moment_. No such test exists for weed. The only way to prove someone is not high is to do the usual urine test, which returns positive if you've smoked at all in the past ~month.
It's a liability thing. If a "weed breathalyzer" is invented and employers can prove that you are sober when reporting to work, I think smoking in the evening will become much less of an issue.
A rather good example of this process is the whole "space race" where the Germans pioneered space travel technology, which ended in a kind of collapse of the whole knowledge base to the point that the USA was hitching a ride on Russian rockets just to get to an aging space station, and where space travel had to essentially be rediscovered by SpaceX, etc. I don't think people quite understand what happened in that 1955-2010 period where the "advanced society" of today stumbled upon the ancient technology of the 1955-1960s when men with straight edges and graphing paper put men on the moon and brought them back home and couldn't figure out how exactly they did it … something that has still not been replicated.
