You squeeze olives and get oil but if you squeeze an orange you get juice.
What sets oil and juice apart? Why can’t you get olive juice and orange oil?

I think for oil they use the different parts like the seeds, and they are crushed under certain conditions instead of just squeezed out. there is orange oil, but its an essential oil, mostly not meant for cooking. Olive juice could be produced but not even the nastiest greek granny would drink it.
