[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 77618788, member: 123415"] I would've simply alerted the staff and let them handle it. ...and I don't think anyone's suggesting that every problem has a catch-all solution. However, with regards to this challenge in particular. When taking something that was considered an "either / or" for nearly as long as humanity has existed, and trying to instantly swap it to a "neither / both / a little of each", that's going to create a lot of issues when foisted on people. That's why the legal frameworks (and policies of private companies for that matter) tend to be structured around "what's applicable to most people". For instance, it'd be trying to trying to accommodate everyone, individually, with regards to the rules of the road. Are there people who can drive more safely at 80mph than some people do at 40mph? Of course. Are there some people who can drink 3 beers and not be meaningfully impaired, while others can get quite buzzed after 1 drink?... sure. However, the rules are "Speed limit is 65, and if you're over 0.08 BAC, we designate that as impaired" Is that "fair"? No... you're limiting one person's ability to do something based on generalized facets of the "herd". But in situations where rules/laws can't be practically/feasibly fined tuned to suit everyone's individual situation, certain things have to end up being structured around "what works for most people".
