Considering they have actively featured some of alcohol delivery apps in the store at some point (either at the Food and Drink category level, or in a "Plan that Memorial Day BBQ" type curation), then I assume that it is fine?

It maybe starts to get a bit more hairy since some of them now also sell tobacco and CBD products alongside the alcohol.

There's a big difference between "An official Google blog post said it's okay", to the same level of certainty as the pot post linked above, and "An app store curator selected an app". App store curators are likely independent contractors hired by a third-party management firm, for one. They're not quite clear about whether "featured apps" are endorsed by Google or merely selected by "staff" (a term that usually includes contractors), but I imagine if you made a fuss about "Google promotes XYZ evil app", they would quietly update the legalese to say that "featured" does not imply "endorsed" or similar.
