This is from your personal view and I respect that. But, if that's a case as you said "there's no need" What need law makers had in mind when they made that rule to be different for P drivers, bus drivers, pilots etc?

For sure I'm part of the ones who enjoy a good drop with some food. I grew up with table wine at every meal and as kids we had a drop to tint our water. Might be viewed as child abuse nowadays.
I just dislike" carpet bombing" laws putting everyone in the same bag for things that are just individual common sense. Some will call it nanny state. But there is revenue in some of them.
Can't talk about public transport. I assume when you're driving a vehicle and you have a crowd at the back you're responsible for then it's a whole other ball game. P platers, well, they cope a lot of sh|t but were we really any better? And what's the difference between them and us right now? Maybe they're more enclined to party so a limit might apply. I don't know.
My point is that you surely can't take everything that is good and enjoyable in life because a few morons abuse it.
