My guess is that if you get a larger system with better quality parts, it’s going to be safer generally than smaller/and more disposable oriented stuff.
I’m a former smoker, vaping for the last ten years on rebuildable tanks with box mods. I had been smoking cigarettes for about ten years before I made the switch. Anecdotally, I can say that my vapes feel way way way less harmful than cigarettes.
I will not touch a disposable vape, and I think they are absolutely a harmful product. This study shows that it’s harmful for your body, but I didn’t need to know this problem in order to identify that casually throwing away a device with a battery in it is a big no-no. Disposable vapes are incredibly wasteful products.

This might not have any connection to the actually safety though, it could be the tobacco smoke is harsher on the lungs so you feel it but the vape could contain more heavy metals that your lungs/throat don’t detect.
But I think you’re right, from what I’ve heard the higher quality vapes don’t have the issue with leaching metals from the heating element.
That’s true. Still, I feel just fine after all these years, and my lung capacity is way better than it used to be when I smoked cigs. That’s not to say that it’s perfectly safe, absolutely nobody should ever start vaping unless it’s for harm reduction.
