Yes, putting anything in the lungs other than air will irritate the lungs, and potentially cause cancer. But there are better ways to explain the risk than to slap the same damn label on everything, regardless of the intensity, latency, or exposure time needed to represent a significant risk.
Also: This is today's excuse to use one of the longest words in the English language: pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. which is a condition affecting air flow to the furthest degree possible, caused by silica, potentially from a volcano.
