Hell, I love nothing more than celebrating the end of a hard days work with a beer. No disagreement from me. I would simply suggest that people think the same way about a Coke. There's nothing wrong with celebrating the end of a day with a beer, but most people would look askance if you were drinking them all day at your desk. So why is it considered normal to do the same with a caffeine and sugar concoction that we know is highly dangerous? As to the standing desk issue, I think it's most an issue of being sedentary in general than standing vs. sitting. There's nothing particularly natural about standing in a single place for hours either.
