Now you have to define “water form”. What percentage of dissolved constituents prevent water from being “water form”? Or is it how it looks rather than what’s in it?
It’s possible to have a brine solution of 25% salt that looks like ordinary water, at least at first glance, for example. Would only the H2O molecules in that be replaced by milk or would the salt be replaced as well?
What if I add food dye to a glass of water beforehand? That doesn’t look like water any more, so would that get turned into milk? Would the dye stay?
How about if I mixed an emulsifier, oil and chalk dust into a glass of water beforehand? That’s not milk, but it looks like milk. What would happen with that? And then we’re back to percentages again, I guess.
My definition is that if it’s something that common sense would call water, it’s water. This is the simple trick that defeats all stupid questions.
In your example, brine isn’t water because it’s brine, you even said that in the example.
And if you add food dye to a glass of water, it’s water but colored. Even with you yourself wrote the example implying that it should be water.
The oil with chalk emulsified in water has nothing to do with milk, what does it matter that it looks like milk. And as you yourself implied, it should not be considered water, but an emulsion of stuff.
And notice how I avoided talking percentages, I simply questioned your own common sense. You didn’t even think about it, and yet your common sense made the solution clear in your examples.
Look, if I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but you’re not making a good case here. Brine is also known as salt water. Just how much of a stretch is that? Sea water is salt water. Sea water is also known as brine. Depending on which term we use, either the sea turns into milk or it doesn’t. This is a problem.
But then this is all a hypothetical and maybe the real bend is how far we’re both getting out of shape over this :p

Another name for brine is “salt water”. Now is it water or not?
You had to go out of your way for that. Not common sense. It’s still not water.
