How on earth can cow's milk be considered an essential part of our diet when its purpose is to feed calves until they are old enough to be weaned?

The industrial and technological revolutions have made our lives simpler, in terms of what is physically required of us on a daily basis, but they have also made it possible for us to do a whole lot less than we ought to be doing, and we suffer for it.
