Yeah—it looks like it’s a trend among drinkers, so it says nothing about the overall drinking rate.
That's what I mean, wouldn't it being a different subset of users? Maybe these are the hardcore drinkers that already existed, but were overshadowed by the huge numbers of drinkers.
or this could be young women having a glass of wine while cooking dinner?
The number doesn't say that much. Obviously it's among drinkers, but I think the more interesting percentage would be people who only drink alone.
