I grew up on a dairy farm and we would feed the cats milk regularly. They seemed to enjoy it. Had I known then what I know now I'd likely point out that milk might not be good for the adult cats.

My grandparents had a mixed farm including a milking herd. The cats also liked milk. Ditto, I wouldn't feed my cat cows milk with lactose in it. But then the previous cat got so obsessive about it, it would wake me at 4am for it. So milk feeding stopped soon after that. Hence, new cat is not getting milk as I don't want to go down that road again.

You said "taste for" not whether or not they can tolerate it. They seem to have a taste for it.

Oh, and if there's milk made for cats then it is likely been treated to remove the lactose

It's because cats have (contrary to you assertion) a "taste for" milk and wish to drink it and owners may wish to indulge this taste (you contend they don't have) without causing them issues.
