I can agree on that point taking completely literally - but the biggest risk in this case was probably the alcohol (uppity physical threat) rather than the lack of mask. Can take 3 people to restrain 1, but if you have got to the stage where you have to restrain an agitated passenger it's not ideal. I know attendants are trained in how to de-escalate a situation before it gets to that stage.
Remove the alcohol & It's a jump from not wearing a mask to danger to flight. It's not going to make the engines explode. Why not just detain this side. The whole situation is completely unnecessary from giving people things to fight over, being drunk on a flight (sounds like) and diverting.
I've seen videos of it both ways. Crazy hysterical people not wearing masks causing issues, crazy hysterical people with masks shouting at people who are just sitting calmly.
