This is my point, if the drinking doesn't matter so much as the "what you're doing" why does booze need to be involved at all?

"hours-long conversations over beers" sounds like getting wasted to me or at at very least tipsy.

It doesn't. But it can be, because - besides the "social grease" benefits it confers, which I mentioned before - why not?
