Yes, get drunk with some Russians, and you can honour each other under the table. Every group, nation, society, has its own silly peccadilloes. I don't think it is about that group really thinking its important, but just as a test to make sure you, the individual will sacrifice your individuality, to affiliate yourself to the group view.
