Then you know the answer. The answer what would make you comfortable. Your friend is psychotic with overhanging glasses.

It's difficult to give you an exact answer cuz it depends on the group of people. Some people don't care about overhanging glasses some people do.

At a restaurant where nobody's responsible for cleanup, the overhanging glass becomes less of your problem and more of an interesting thing. If you saw an overhanging glass on another table would you go over and correct it? No

If your friend is persistently doing this, and they won't take feedback, put a little lip around the edge of your table so the glass can't hang off the edge
