Are these fears warranted, or is formula feeding a safe and effective alternative to the natural method?

comparing apples to pears
I am sure that you have to agree that it is comical even try to compare a living, ever changing, over %90 absorbable by the baby, species specific breast milk to chemically manufactured from dairy leftovers, and fungus, day-in-day-out same, out of the box, powder substitute.
I do acknowledge the use of formula in extreme situations, but luckily these are not much more than the adults needing nasogastric feedings.
