I seem to rmember reading an article many years ago in some publication or other, about a military fast jet pilot who took part in a simulator experiment to prove (or disprove) that alcahol and flying don't mix.
Off he flew in his simulated fast jet and did the planned sortie. Somewhere along the line, sadistic sim instructor throws him a curved ball which he handles in an exemplary manner. OK, end of sortie.
Out of cockpit and gets wrapped around a half of bitter or something similar.
Wait half an hour and leap back into the air. Somewhere along this sortie, sim sadist throws exactly the same emergency at him, with a crash and burn result.
No argument really. Alcahol and flying do not mix and anyone who does it as a statistic waiting to happen.
