tldr they found in their study that alcoholics/people with AUD can drink 50% more (7-8 drinks) and be twice as intoxicated , as compared to standard drinkers and alcoholics at 4-5 drinks, where the alcoholics were comparatively much less intoxicated than ‘standard drinkers’ (I think this implies that alcoholics do have a tolerance to alcohol but tolerance is not linear)

No, perhaps I’ve poorly explained it. The article’s not a very long read though.
