Why is booze so important to flyers?

I know that not every member of this group imbibes but I have never understood why so many here get uptight about having (or rather not having) the best of the best of the most expensive alcohol in the lounges and on board.
I enjoy a tipple but it wouldn't spoil the enjoyment of a flight if it's not there. I well remember a crew member being shocked when I refused a third top up on the upper deck of the 747 to Dubai. He returned several times to see whether I had changed my mind!
Would some of the Connoisseurs of the devil's water tell me if their lives are spend in business soirées consuming inordinate amounts of Moët & Chandon?
