Er, the whole point of the article is that the health benefits might not be caused by alcohol consumption, but rather by higher degrees of socialization that happen to be correlated with alcohol consumption.

My point is that you can't explain a statistic with one cause. Most of the time there are many. Some of them we know, some of them not.
