The situation in LA is somewhat different. The settlement was for the treatment she received after her hysterical response to the TSA rules pertaining to breast milk. Unlike your situation the TSA was not forbidding the breast milk only that it be x-rayed first.
Whether you like the liquid rules is beside the point. Without the baby there is no pressing need for breast milk or any other infant formula to be treated differently than any other liquid. Why do you need it in the cabin if the child is not with you?
