Drinking with any psychiatric medication is dangerous. Even if the warnings say its ok, or wont harm you it actually can because psyche meds are notoriously hard on your liver. Mixing alcohol which is metabolized by the liver and medication which is also metabolized by the liver is dangerous because your liver has to work harder to process the meds and alcohol. So imo any regular drinking is bad for you. It has nothing to do with whether you are buzzed or drunk from drinking its about the stress it puts on your body.
I cant remember who said drinking with latuda is ok but:

You should also avoid the use of alcohol while being treated with lurasidone. Alcohol can increase the nervous system and blood-pressure lowering effects of lurasidone. You may experience increased drowsiness, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, and impairment in thinking and judgment
