I prefer this harmless invisible "addiction" than what to me seems the inevitable consequence of a collective distancing from caffeine, the rise on alcohol consumption.

I can be a social drinker (of coffee) while my friends are drinking their beers, but I cannot fathom myself asking for a "juice" instead.

For that matter, the harm from excess sugars in just about any non-caffeinated, non-alcohol beverage almost certainly outweighs any harm from caffeine dependence.
