I don't have access to my ob/gyn friend at the moment, so I cannot comment on if and how widespread "off-label" usage is.
I will however slot my beliefs of this as more hysterical than imperical. You have shown very little data in any of the websites you've cited that show any correlation to corroborate your claims.

The drug generation in America came One Generation after widespread drug use in birth. An experiment that had never before played out in our worlds history. Ever wonder why so many kids of the 60's and 70's were drawn to drugs?
Momma was drugged with what they then called "twilight sleep", a combination of general anesthetics that made it so the woman was completely out and the docs used forceps to yank the baby out. One generation after this type of birth of the 40's and 50's we all of a sudden had all these teens and young adults drawn to drugs.
Childbirth activists have been talking about it for years. As for compelling double blind scientific studies, despite various people calling for those huge expensive studies for the past 40 years, the drug companies have played deaf, blind, and dumb and just pretend nothing is wrong and there is no connectivity.
A few small studies have been done in Europe and Asia, but I'm not going to do your homework for you. Go find em. They are out there.
The newest linkage going on is between kids who spend months in NICU care feeling drawn to Raves, cutting, and Tatooing. They generally start to feel like getting into this behavior when they are fifteen.
Not too many studies on that either, why kill the cash cow of newborn NICU's, again mostly funded by the taxpayers, as families who get those million dollar bills often go on medicare and government picks up the tab.
My cynacism towards the birth machine, or the BS, as you call it, is only further fueled by the lack of understanding on the part of obstetricians and NICU pediatricians of the role that prenatal nutrition plays in the prevention of Toxemia and Prematurity. They know NOTHING and they have been taught nothing about it in medical school.
Google Tom Brewer MD, he was a doctor in the truest sense of the word. Consumate researcher, practitioner, writer, scholar, and Passionate activist working to normalize and standardize prenatal nutrition as the foremost key to a healthy baby.
Did anyone on this board have a doctor ask them what they were eating while pregnant? I never did, not once during the three pregnancies that I went to them for prenatals. Yet it is in fact the key to a healthy pregnancy, great birth, and abundant breastmilk supply.
