Let's see if I understand the reasoning here.  The contention is that porn
(or erotica or whatever, let's deal with one argument at a time) should be
eliminated or its access restricted or something because it has been shown
to be used (misused) for abuse.

Well, such abuse also generally involves the use (misuse) of the perpetrator's
genitalia.  Does mean that universal castration ought to be considered as a
means of preventing such abuse as well?

Excuse me. I'd better go put on my asbestos suit.

Any conceivable disclaimer applies.
