What is the rationale for banning menthols in particular?

All other flavors have been banned federally for a long time. At that time, menthols were exempted on the reasoning that they were especially popular with Black Americans. Therefore a ban on menthols was thought to be ... something, something and something.

One thing vapes have going for them is the wide variety of child-friendly flavors.
