But that's not true? Butter is only the fat (and some minerals) of the milk. So milk contains butter but butter contaibs no milk.

The churning process isn't 100% effective at removing water, proteins, etc, so people that are allergic to milk can also react to butter. The milk isn't "milk" anymore, but it would be more confusing to say "contains milk fats, proteins, sugars, enzymes, hormones, antibodies, mucins and minerals", IMO.
