Can someone get any PIP points for inability to do something due to the accumulated results of excessive alcohol consumption? Asking for a friend - no really! Got MY pip, now helping others.

Alcoholism is a recognised condition so I do not see why the effects that it has on the claimants ability to complete the PIP activities should not be taken into account. I would think that they will need to make use of the terms that come under the heading of "reliability", the major issue may be showing the they meet the requirement for the majority of days.
