Water and beer are for drinking for millennia, not milk.
That's a good point, as then people would be less aware of what was causing any illnesses (not that actual studies were done back then anyway).

Safer. The question is "is raw milk safe" and the answer is not "no."

That has been my point.
That point -- from all the evidence I've seen and even looked up and cited -- is pretty clearly wrong. You haven't even given any reasons except anecdotes and imagination.
