Is there perhaps something of a paradox here as regards your personal rationale surrounding the two potential options for getting a drink ?

In terms of the using the call bell, you feel (and many might agree) that “if the entire plane acted like that, it would be chaos”

What if ‘the entire plane’ choose the (apparently preferable) recommendation to “go to the galley” …. ? Would this approach - in contrast to the call bell - prove to be a nice smooth process ….. ?
