The chemical compounds of all kinds are also out there, available for anyone to do as they like with them. Say, mixing ammonium chlorate with peroxide, why not? Or potassium permanganate with powdered aluminum. It's patently absurd to request other people to stop.

1. Lol but they're literally not
2. A sample of chemical compound and a piece of math don't share literally any ontological qualities - you might as well have tried to make a comparison between math and nude pictures of the President
It's illegal to make weapons out of chemicals because the government has a monopoly on violence.
Mix together whatever you want, and then you can fight the feds when they show up to enforce their monopoly.
