Because you usually won't notice someone is drunk/tipsy, if they are performing well, since they often have no reason to tell you.

I have just now finished an Alwaysreap run after 5 beer (= tipsy), all the players were in i180ish, but the tank pulled surprisingly slowly (we even had SMN), usually when sober, I would just heal, and sit back. But dunno why, when tipsy, I have the need to perform, so I stance-danced (cleric), and did as much DPS as I could, I also insta-Leaches on the second boss (when sober, I don't care enough, I just leaches, when I see the DoT on the player, not when I see the targeting), and stuff like that. Nobody died, nobody was ever in danger...

DON'T throw drunk players into one sack! Alcohol influences people differently!
