Lactose intolerant people can drink black coffee, non?

Yes.

If you can't drink milk, don't drink milk. Drink the coffee without the milk. Or drink water or wine or tea or whatever else they serve.
When did a lack of little luxury accommodations like these milk substitutes become intolerance?

Does stocking milk ethically require that you stock alternatives for those who want something like milk, but can't have it?

Intolerance would be getting mad at someone for asking milk alternatives, which is what's criticized here.

Exactly. If someone wants or needs to avoid certain products, that’s great. There’s plenty of options. But it’s not a restaurant’s job to cater to every whim. They can’t always have everything.

I can’t have fish. My brother is allergic to peanuts. So I eat dishes without fish, he eats them without peanuts. I’m not going to ask for the ‘fishless salmon’.

So? I'm sorry but I don't get how that's related to the discussion.

Sure, they can. It's just that there's no need to feel offended at someone asking for a milk alternative.
