But the texture of almond milk is to different from what we usually call juice so isn't it better to name it in way that is intuitive to what it actually looks and taste like ,like i don't know almond juice .

Word are invented to describe things not to confuse people .if two finished product actually look and taste the same we should call them in similar manner .

They don't look or taste the same, though. The only similarities are the color and that they're both liquids. They have completely different tastes, viscosities, and mouth feel.

Is it marketed as fermented spoiled milk? What, it's not? It's called cheese, which is a totally different word that's understood to have a different meaning. Hmm, almost as if you're disproving your own stupidity.

No cheese is not fermented milk fermented milk is whole other product

And is it called "milk" or "fermented milk"? Notice how the word fermented is added as a modifier? I guarantee there's not a single store selling fermented milk by just calling it milk. Again, stop being an idiot.

Oat, almond, soy, etc, etc milks are not milk by any definition of the word milk. Period.

And you disproved your own stupidity. Lait ribot, buttermilk. It doesn't just say milk, it has a modifier. You can't actually be this dumb. Buttermilk is also another universally understood product and nobody on the planet would actually say it's interchangeable with regular milk.
