Having cereal for breakfast daily is akin to using soda for hydration.
Well, I was born in the 1960s and honey coated chocolate sugar bombs were already the cereal of choice among my kindergarten classmantes - and soda for hydration was pretty standard then too.
Well, except that excessive carbs are a problem, and while milk and juice may have some nutrition (that you can also easily get from other sources), they have as much sugar as soda.
As a diabetic, I try not to drink calories. Milk and juice are slightly worse than regular soda. And I will occasionally have some of any of those. But occasionally, and a small amount, not a large amount.
Juice better than soda? Easily, I’d say. Juice healthy? Everything in moderation. I drink far too much orange juice, and my children objected to the “high pulp” varieties I used to buy so now I don’t get much fiber from it either. But, it’s clearly healthier than Coca Cola - calorie for calorie.

What people think is unhealthy or healthy changes once they start actually looking into it.
Soda? Clearly unhealthy. Juice? Milk? Clearly healthy.

Milk is a whole other can of worms…
