I think the issue here is that you are conflating the ability to give consent and criminal accountability.
I could say the same thing about you
That doesn't imply that a drunk tattooist can forcibly tattoo people and expect no legal repercussions.
I think your example is pretty ridiculous. I don't hear of too many forced tattooings or too many artists charged for giving tattoos to drunk individuals.
you cannot consent to sex when severely intoxicated under UK law
I can't speak for UK law. I am an american and I can only speak to the laws here in the U.S.
No one is forcing anyone to take advantage of drunk people either.
This is assuming that the drunk person is indeed being taken advantage of. Even if that is the case that is a moral/ ethical issue and not a legal one.
