I've always thought the trope was based on the idea of stunted development. Kids are heavily encouraged to drink milk, so films making a point of adults drinking it are indicating that there's some part of growing up that they've missed.

It's also not made for adults, it's literally baby food for mamals.
While some parts of the world have been drinking it out of necessity to survive (in colder climate) most of the world haven't developed a lactose tolerancy.
Adult milk drinkers are indeed freaks.

Yet several cultures across the world developed means to drink milk and eat cheese. The mongols' fermentation process allows them to eat and drink despite being lactose intolerant, not to mention they make kumis from mare milk

Several cultures around the world did a lot of fucked up shit.
