I don’t think so because it’s an activity that can be used for fun without major damage. Kind of like it’s not unethical to own a water park even if it means it’s likely someone will eventually drown. More unethical to own a cigarette company since those aren’t safe regardless
Furthermore, people aren’t encouraged to drown in water parks — they’re protected from it. But casinos, for example, will take strategic measures to maximise how much money you spend and how long you stay, which could be consider to be nurturing the seeds of addiction
