The article names a good reason but ultimately it's because they are removed from the circumstance in which they would incur negative consequences or social stigma for drinking throughout the day. The degree to which they would imbibe varies but done moderately but it is in contrast to the "drink your drinks at night" which is now the modern world standard. I wager the "drink a little all day" used to be more common in the pre modern world.

Or work on a laptop. >people don’t normally have to sit around for hours just waiting Waiting in lines, waiting in traffic, waiting for buses. There's still plenty of waiting. And when people have free time (weekends, etc.) Yes they often drink.
