You are being intentionally obtuse and asking loaded questions though.
Do you really think I'm drunk when I have a single beer? Two beers? Three? Four? Five?
At what point am I drunk? What if I eat a meal when I have these 1-5 beers?
Do you believe that ANY amount of alcohol is too much? Do you really believe that anyone who has had any amount of alcohol has impaired judgment? Do you really think cops give DUIs for people who have had a single beer?
Do you really believe I'll kill someone if I drive after having 1 or 2 beers?
Do you honestly think there is no difference between these two statements:
"Alcohol has effects on a human being. Whether they have one drop or a whole keg doesn't matter, they are effected, even if only at the most miniscule of measurable levels."
"The consumption of alcohol, if in great enough quantities, can impair a persons driving"
I honestly don't think you know the difference.
It is like saying money changes people and then saying that a guy who wins a $2 lottery and a guy who wins a $20m lottery will both have their lives forever altered.
It just isn't the case. On some level, yes, they both won the lottery. But no they won't forever have their lives totally altered.
Your comparison with booze is the same.
One drop is not the same as amount x that impairs my driving. They just aren't the same. They never will be the same.

A lot of what you are saying is valid, I think it just came off a bit like drinking and driving is ok if you know what you are doing.
