Comments on the clue
1.3 Removal of arbitrary letters indicated just by "almost" is weak.
2.Unfortunately I think the clue needs more of a definition than 'addict'.
3.Def doesn't really get you there
4.Surface reading seems a little strained and definition really needs to specify subject of addiction.
