That's like the dairy lobbyists not wanting the vegetable milk products to feature the word "milk" because people might buy them by accident.

I agree with them. I don't want to buy

~Vegetable~ Milk only to find out it's not a dairy product.

It's clearly written on them in big caps "soy" or "oat". If you buy it by "accident", it's your fault.

We should aim for the middle and call it "cow nipple juice" soy can be "soy white water"
