While I agree that alcoholism is sad, this is a non sequitur. Unless you have knowledge about the founder of this service that isn't posted on the site, neither of us know that he is or is not an alcoholic. Plenty of people get drunk without being dependent on alcohol in any way, and it does not help those suffering from alcoholism to ignore that.

Well, it is a curious idea, and a very peculiar niche for a business! But... "Your website should be so simple, a drunk person could use it" is kind of arguable. For some sites (eg. hacker news...?) the desirable outcome is that a drunk person should probably not use it. Still, I suppose the tester can test for that as well.
