Your said so yourself, the genetic adaptation is present in a minority of the population and these days it's not necessary in the vast majority of the world since the nutrients can easily be found elsewhere.
Yes, the reason why it's pushed in schools is very much the dairy lobby. When Health Canada created the most recent food guide they got rid of the industry's influence and instead focused on science... Well, dairy is pretty much gone, they only say small quantities of low fat dairy can be part of healthy eating habits.

Guess who was pissed? The dairy industry because it needs the publicity and getting removed showed Canadians that we were just fooled by marketers.
How does the majority of humans manage to survive without drinking it in school? 😱 Wake up, you've been had by a billions dollars multinational industry.
why are you trying to destroy an ethnic minority's cultural foods?
Yes a minority of the world population, but it is present in a majority of the American population (about 70%)
My point about the schools is that kids often have craptastic diets, be that due to poor parenting or just kids being picky eaters, and milk rounds out the diet and fills in the gaps since it's such a great source of nutrients
Bro I just think milk and dairy tastes good (plus it's full of good nutrients and pretty dang healthy) and you're being weird about pushing your personal preferences on others while making vague moral judgments.
