On a serious note, I personally think it is more to do with the airline being seen as "cheap" when you pay a lot of money for a ticket you expect to get wine/champagne at a level comensurate with what you paid. For example pre Covid there was a period where First class was serving a Villa Maria which ypu could get on offer for £5 at a supermarket. If I'd paid £3000-6000 for a first class ticket I wouldn't be that happy either.
This.

If traveling for work, I may have a drink (or none) since I typically have things to do when I get off the plane unless returning home ahead of a weekend etc. But it is nice to have good drinks when traveling for leisure.
