If your worries about tractability are largely due to psychedelics being legally restricted, there might be reasons to be more optimistic:
Psilocybin mushrooms are now on the ballot to be decriminalized in Denver, there’s a vote initiative in Oregon, and psilocybin is already legal in some form in at least 7 counties (including 2 in Europe): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_status_of_psilocybin_mushrooms
Ayahuasca is legal in at least 8 countries (including 5 in Europe): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_status_of_ayahuasca_by_country
