alcohol is commonly accepted as being used without having an actually narcotic effect and is different than chemicals ingested to do so

False. Alcohol acts on the same brain pathways as opiates (see http://www.niaaa.nih.gov/gallery/pharmacology/volpi.htm); the mildly relaxing effect of a small amount of alcohol is no different than the mildly relaxing effect of a small amount of opiate.
