Bev, my comment on your suggestion to < call cows milk cows milk> and < Why use respectable monikers for something that was meant for calves?> is that the powdered white stuff that is fed to babies would not be good for calves either.  Farmers have a commercial formula called "milk replacer" or such, and it has been shown that calves denied access to the cows' colostrum (fresh, biologically active), and fed milk replacer instead are more likely to develop septicaemia from scours (calf gastro-enteritis) and die.  Also calves fed fresh cows milk (from their own mother or another cow) grow better than those fed milk replacer.
Makes sense, doesn't it?
