Should =/= is. In practice, drinks almost always arrive without a cup holder, and no cup holder is immediately available. The player must go scrounge for one, ask a busy floorperson, or do something else to get one. It takes time. Lots of players are not inclined to take that time. (I do, but I'm a rules follower and I think the exception.)
I'm not saying that the current framework can't work. It can. But saying that the issue should be moot is pretty disconnected from how things are actually playing out.
