Isn't it? Considering the number of people who get drunk and belligerent on planes and end up assaulting people...

99% of people who order alcohol on a flight don't get belligerent. But every smoker disturbs people around them.

However it is unfortunately very difficult to tell who will get belligerent before serving them and there is not much in the way of discipline afterwards. Although to be fair the people who cause the most disturbance will probably be loud and annoying even if they don't have anything to drink.

The probability remains much lower than getting the smoke from your neighboring smoker.
