Virginia posted on this and asked for feedback.
Caution: this is very subjective!

I have the impression that parents who mention bonding with father as an
advantage of bottle feeding, are either parents who are not as committed to
breastfeeding at the outset, or who recognize it as an unexpected benefit
after having to forego breastfeeding for other reasons.
When breastfeeding works well, both fathers and mothers recognize it as the
most convenient way, and fathers have no trouble finding real ways to
establish real bonds with their offspring.
just my 30 ml worth!
