Never said there weren't extenuating circumstances, but that doesn't make formula in any way comparable to breastmilk from a healthy, well-fed mother, only that it's a necessary evil sometimes.
My wife went through undue torture and stress due to all the breastfeeding virtue signaling. She was simply unable to produce enough despite her best efforts. My kids are 12 and 7 now and both have proven to be quite intelligent.
Yeah, I havent seen any anecdotal evidence of the contrary, and I have seen multiple cases in my own family of kids not being raised on breast milk and they all fared well later in life.
