I disagree. I know hundreds of pilots, but not a single
one who will fly
after drinking.
How many of them have been cited for driving while
intoxicated?
I know plenty if people who will drive after drinking. I
mistrust your sample.
How many pilots do you know who will drive after drinking
but won't fly?
Quite a few.
In general, if a drinker manages to rationalize driving
under the influence,
it's not really any different to rationalize flying under
the influence.
Wrong. Loss of judgment due to addiction is incremental,
not a binary state.
Even airline pilots are caught at this.
Almost always only after they have reached an advanced stage
in their addiction.
