Smoking, and drinking, isn't normally seen as a Heroic act. A glass of wine at dinner isn't normally seen as bad but when you sit and drink a whole 6 pack it's kinda looked at with disdain. Smoking is also normally reserved for the villains now a days. Putting evil with evil since smoking is harmful. Granted you have the Champagne firework from weddings so maybe a smoke emote isn't that far fetched. However having our character run around constantly doing the smoking emote make make them look less heroic?

I wouldn't say so. There have been many protagonists in fiction that have been smokers. Some even having weakness/health issues as a result of it. John Constantine immediately comes to mind, and he doesn't face off against your typical bad boy that has a different perspective. He battles against true evil.

From a practical standpoint though, what the WoL goes through physically would be much more difficult if he/she was a smoker. I'm not talking about long falls, or fighting an Eikon. Just simply the amount of running, swimming, even riding your chocobo would all be much more difficult to do in the amount the WoL does.
