Occam's razor is she over drank on an empty stomach, probably was dehydrated with low blood sugar from flying all day. I've spent the night puking in a hotel after playing flip cup for a few hours with the crew after a long day, it happens. Normally I can drink quite a bit.
First of all, 10 mg per day equates to LESS THAN a half mg per hour, not 20mg per SHOT. And even that was only the first study.
The second part of that was people who were routinely prescribed Xanax at typical (and much smaller) dosages.
Look at the individual risk factors she had. She was female, which tripled her risk compared to a male. She had ostensibly just started it, which put her at the highest risk timeline. And she was over thirty, putting her in an age group more likely to have vomiting as a side effect.
Notwithstanding your apparent extensive experience at binge drinking and puking which you seem quite proud of, you seem to lack even a basic understanding of pharmacology.
Don't give up your day job.
