20 drinks a week = functional alcoholic
35 drinks a week = alcoholic
50 drinks a week = you are beyond help

35 and 50/60 are very different. Also 35 = straight up alcoholic not even a functional one.
35 drinks a week = 5 drinks every single night.
you were implying that say 45 drinks = just fine. that's almost 7 drinks a night. aside from the fact that that consistent level of consumption would probably kill most people in ten to twenty years, it would clearly interfere with their daily life as well, because they're be drunk literally every single night. that's beyond even functional alcoholism.

Not that different when we don't have a good definition or define average weight.
Op asked about alcoholics, not "functional alcoholics." I said less is unhealthy, but not necessarily social problems.
I stand by my number. Some people might be alcoholics with fewer drinks, but 50 is the minimum where most people would start to have real social consequences.

XO is autistically reductionist about everything that has to do with health, fitness, or addiction.
they can't wrap their spectrum-afflicted minds around ideas like negative life consequences, physical dependence, or escalation. instead, they latch onto a raw number as if there's some kind of blanket applicable baseline of X drinks per day = alcoholism. what's the reasoning? well clearly 20 drinks every day is alcoholism and zero drinks every day is not, so now we just need to refine the number to extract the rule!
seriously, this place used to be smarter.

"I don't do it every night, but when I don't, I want to."
so in 6 months he will do it every night.
then in a year it will be 3/4 of a bottle.
you see where this is going.

hold on, splitting a bottle of wine a day is an alcoholic?
then my parents they've been alchies for 25 years (which of course may be true but i think it's something less than the danger zone for sure)
