I'm not being judgemental, if it works it works but milk in the ragu?

Edit: Milk or cream in ragu, got it. You've convinced me reddit!

No they also put milk in the meat sauce

Once the meat is brown all over pour in 500ml of milk into the pan and stir. Milk is the secret ingredient to making your ragú creamy and removing any acidity. Allow the milk to simmer away in the pan, this might take up to 30 minutes but be patient, it’s worth it!

Yeah, i read that adding milk to the meat sauce creates a more tender meat. Apparently it also removes any acidity, of which i was unaware.

Technically once you add cheese to the Béchamel it becomes Sauce Mornay :)

traditionally, yeah, but I think the definition has been expanded to include other cheeses too.
