"Dogscape is a good example of that. The author created their own reality separate from our own and this can make what ever rules they wanted in there. " I'm not really taking it personally, I'm just stating why I think that altering the story to your standards isn't really necessary. This is a story in the same vein as Dogscape so it seems unnecessary to try and link it to the factual world as trying to shoe-horn it into the world would end up breaking immersion further.

I really don't see an issue with immersion as I never explicitly stated that this story is true so trying to find some way in which the story 'can't possibly occur' seems un-necessary. I don't really understand why I have to make this story 100% factual (at the cost of plot and premise).

"Again the easiest way to fix this story is to change he word alcahol (sic) to mind altering substance not destroyed by heat." By doing that, I''m changing a lot in the story. Look at the characters: recovering alcoholics, high-functioning drunks, children, etc. To change the substance drastically alters the plot and how it impacts the characters (including multiple characters main plot arcs) and doesn't help out the plot.
