        To which authority? Because I know the milk conglomerate has been staunchly fighting for that very definition.

        The lack of consent is more viable as a disqualifier.

          I think the main distinction is lactose. And/or the proteins that are present in milk.

          While oat milk and consorts can be used in a lot of use cases it’s not a one to one replacement and it’s dishonest to claim it is.

          Depends on the definition of milk. They are opaque liquids but the similarities don’t go much past that. Animal milk has all the nutrition and nutrients needed to be a sole food source, these plant based juices and purees do not.
