In this case, this behavior choice affects me personally.
Back when I played in bands, one of the aspects I hated about it was playing in the bars that allowed smoking. That very habit you are talking about caused my clothes and hair etc. to stink of tobacco smoke after the gig. Instruments would likewise smell like an ashtray and have to be aired out. I'm sure that wasn't good for my lungs, either.
I no longer play out, which means thankfully I can avoid any establishment that still allows smoking. I value my health and happiness too; second hand smoke isn't very healthy, and stuff that stinks of tobacco doesn't make me very happy.
