The important factor of milk for young mammals is more about it having well rounded nutrients and being easy to digest. It's not like it's some magical fattener. At the end of the day it's still about the composition and amount of calories consumed. Like anything else, you have to balance what you are eating.
The fact is that because it's an all-in-one food it's probably more healthy than a lot of things, it's just easy to consume too much, especially when you aren't doing something to use the protein (which cow's milk has a lot more of.) Theoretically human breast milk could sustain a person their entire life.
The last thing fatties need is another excuse for not watching their diets.
Though, I do have a couple of beefs with milk. For one, yogurt being marketed as a health food is the biggest scam in the dairy industry. That shit has way too much sugar. Keep your yogurt for dessert like it's meant to be, and find something else to make you poop every day (you know, like fiber.) Yogurt and juice both set of rant mode for me.
That said, the protein enhanced chocolate milk (low-sugar if they have it) is my go-to on days I lift weights. People have said stuff like "just eat a couple eggs" and my response is always "I could, but this shit tastes fucking good."

Not sure if you are looking at the yogurt from American eyes, but the stuff in Europe is top notch then again manufacturers don't go out of their way to engineer food to get you hooked on it like a crack head. The number one thing I miss from my years spent in Europe is the food quality, when you get back to Merica and realize what utter shit the food quality here is. If I had a dime for every time someone has raved about how great so and so restaurant is and I end up being very disappointed every fucking time. (Except in NY they gots some hella chow) Food tip just because the food shows up at the table in under 5 min does not constitute Good!

Yes, American eyes, indeed. But seriously, most 6-8oz servings have 20-40g of sugar. Sure they have vitamins and stuff, but it's evolved into a health food thing touting how they're "lite" and "probiotic" and "greek" and marketing how great they are for staying fit and being "regular" and losing weight.
And maybe some of those things are true, but in the fat hands of a ham it's just one more thing to justify their fat lives; people who are in shape and healthy either don't need to worry about it or are already aware of it.
I do like yogurt, I just think that it should be viewed as a treat.
