Oil is literally made by pressing seeds.
So what? Pressing seeds does not matter here. Nobody eats an orange or an avocado without peeling it first and nobody eats a nut without cracking it first. So some kind of processing is assumed.

Some of the most appreciated vegetable oils, like olive oil or avocado oils, are not even in the seed.

Most oils are made by pressing seeds. Some are not.
