Friend vs. Friends might be something to do with the fact that in a group of friends, you're likely to have 'lacunae' - moments when the flow of conversation ebbs away from you, so you can look down and away to your mobile. If you were in a one to one 'friend' situation, it would be ruder to suddenly engage with your phone, and you're less likely to have pauses in the conversation.

Maybe?

I think you're right. But also: from a content perspective, there's going to be a lot of "going to have a drink with friends".
