Those are really good points, and I appreciate the input. I could see why alcohol being on someones desk isn't a problem, e.g. depending on the person its possible the bottle doesn't have a "gravity" tempting them.

I'm going to guess that reality is somewhere between my points and your points. Notifications can be configured, but my grandmother isn't going to figure it out. Having a bottle of alcohol on every person's desk is probably completely neutral for a lot of people, but could be detrimental to others. Etc

Agreed. As with most things, the answer is neither black, nor white, but some shade of grey.
