Take Alexander. Hard drinker, sure. A Macedonian night means staying up drinking until sunrise. They did that on the road back from India and about 200 soldiers died from passing out in open air and freezing to death. But Alexander only ever drank in celebration, never in grief. And he had plenty occasions for grief.
Just my opinion
