This is anecdotal but pretty much all of the lactose intolerant people I know love dairy more than the lactose tolerant people. Something as small as your body not processing milk isn't enough to stop them
Plant: I'm going to evolve a noxious chemical that feels like pure fire on a mammal's taste buds to protect my seeds from them.
Humans:
Humans: Let's breed all these pants together to maximize production of the chemical, invent a rating system to determine which ones have the most, then hold competitions to see who can tolerate the highest levels.

It's the innate desire to defy nature that drives us to our dairy addiction
Yeah… but my wife hates it when I consume cheese… even though they claim it’s lactose free…
Completely spitballing here based on your anecdotal observation, but I know that with lactose-intolerance, you're lacking lactase for processing the lactose, so the lactose makes it unprocessed into the gut, where the gut microbiota then process the lactose and cause the usual symptomes.
Well, and those gut microbiota can signal to your brain that they want more of a given food (source).
So, maybe those bacteria in your gut fucking love lactose, because it is basically sugar, and so they instruct you to self-destruct.
