Why can’t we add all the nutrients that breastmilk has to normal cow milk the same way we add calcium or things like that?

Breast milk is valued because it is tailored from that mother to that child to help their body grow and building nutrients, resistances and immunities that the specific mother’s body deemed worthwhile for them to have.

So it can provide specific help that other babies might not need or ever utilize as well as compliment any lacking nutrition that was missed out on by that specific baby in uterus. It usually has a higher absorption rate than synthetic versions because the nutrients are more accessible without requiring to change their forms or any added preservatives or pasteurizing to make a commercially viable long shelf-life product etc
