You are misunderstanding me. I'm agreeing that you're very likely to make bad and irrational choices when you've had 10 pints. However it is still your choice no less than it was your choice if you are sober and make a healthier choice.
I'm saying that because of the PDP you always have the power of choice and will always choose to do whatever it is that you perceive as your happiest option. The fact that that option may be monumentally the wrong thing to do does mean that you do not think that it's a good idea at the time and that you are not choosing it.
