I'm not 100% certain about this, but my initial thoughts are that low socio-economic backgrounds will have less medical treatment (especially preventative) so issues aren't caught as quickly meaning you'll have more health issues at the same consumption rates. Other stats such as higher socio-economic backgrounds tending to eat more healthy foods, exercise more, have a greater ability to have a fruitful social life etc, will all be additional factors.

That's true across the board though, and seems strange to call it out specifically in regards to alcohol consumption.

It’s true across the board, but is relevant to things done across the board. So it is more relevant to public health than the disproportionate impact of scuba diving.
