Therefore you don't get to interrupt the ongoing service further back to get a drink refill. When they come around again you can ask then, or you can get up and walk to the galley and ask. If you need more attentive service, pay for first class.

FA could certainly have delivered this message more diplomatically. I attribute that at least in part to a lack of training.
In my experience, FAs hate it a lot more when you come and "interrupt" them in the galley.

Personally I generally wait for an FA to be walking by. Sometimes I go to the bathroom and ask afterwards, and whenever I do that they seem very annoyed. I've seen many interviews with FAs where they tell passengers to use the call button instead of coming to the galley.

You are flat out incorrect on the rule you made up that you have to wait for the second round of service. That is not a rule in any class.
