I don't think anyone confuses nut milk for cow milk in stores. It's usually more expensive than cow milk and clearly labeled with the specific main ingredient. I don't think these companies are trying to deceive anyone. There's a relatively small subset of consumers, who are interested in milk substitutes, so it's a niche product that serves them well. And cow milk contains sugars too, lactose, which is a disaccharide of galactose and glucose. Finally, the thought that they would squeeze almonds to get milk also never even crossed my mind. I know it's a suspension of powdered almonds in water. There's even recipes of DIY nut milk, that are essentially "grind almonds, add water, stir". So your whole argument seems just ridiculous to me.
