Maybe they should make an airline with pilots who don't drink coffee. Just ones with airline pilots in their native state - drunk.

Fate Is The Hunter. Great film with Glenn Ford, Suzanne Pleshette and Rod Taylor. This very scenario.

Should this not raise the question if these modern aircraft aren’t too sensitive?

No coffee and make sure the pilot didn’t eat fish.

How long before people start blaming Boeing, even though all the cases listed were on Airbus aircraft.

Maybe a no-spill coffee cup of some sort is in order? It could save lots of time and money.

From what I gather, it's any drink (even water getting into electronics) that would have had the same result. The solution is obvious: Sippy cups. :-)
