Part of the reason for which cork poppoing isn't good etiquette could originate from the subliminal message itself. Is that a clue? It wouldn't be the only reason because there are more obvious ones. Also, a "fine eatery" implies that wine is tasted rather than used in a ludibrious manner.
Another example, different but similar: In many places one should be careful, when holding a bottle, not to tilt it toward someone. Why? I've heard that in such places, if you are the guest of people with a fairly limited mentality, you might be put to the door, hardly any use apologizing and saying you didn't do it on purpouse! To them the message isn't subliminal but rather is interpreted as having a clear meaning. However, the meaning is attributed as what the gesture suggests, no more strongly than what cork popping suggests.

How you get along with people is up to you. Whether or not they put up with you is up to them.
