Personally, no, and I don’t want to see animal milk in stores either. There are only two logically consistent answers to that and it’s this one or the inverse; yes. I guess the yes could be two reasonable answers of “yes, and…” or “yes, but not animal milk.”
The only answer left is “animal milk is fine, except for humans.” I don’t see how that one is logical. It’s emotional only. Humans are animals, and human milk is the stuff that is actually made for human consumption. Humans can also consent. I don’t see any logical way you could exclude human milk but include other animals.
It is extracted to be used by humans, but it is evolved to be consumed by their babies. The ratios of fat, protein, and sugar are evolutionarily optimized for their baby to consume. Humans decided to drink it too, but that is not why it exists.
I don’t see where I said evolution has intent. Care to explain? It is made for feeding babies of that species. That is what the animal makes it for. Are you arguing against that? That is the purpose. There is no conscious decision needed for a purpose to be had.
There is a why. Are you stupid. You literally said it. It’s evolutionarily advantageous. “Why” does not imply a conscious decision. I can tell you why a rock rolled down a hill without the rock needing to have decided to roll down the hill. Stop trolling.

cows milk is also made for human consumption. and goat milk. and many others.

evolution has no intent. mammary glands have no intent. humans have intent. what we make something for is its intended use

mammals make milk. its evolutionary advantage doesn’t imply intent.
there is no “why” it exists. only the fact of its existence.

no, you can say animal milk is fine, and human milk not produced through exploitation is fine.
That’s what I said.
