I agree that there's some merit to treating alcohol's effects on you and others separately, but if we do that, shouldn't we then also work to exclude some of its benefits as "social externalities"? Like the whole "alcohol -> socializing -> mental well-being"-pattern?
You should exclude the mental well-being of the others you socialize with while drunk, yes. But that's not going to show up on your personal longevity.
