Yeah, the top-half is simplifying a bit, because well, it is a meme, but apparently, there's also just multiple ways to do it.
Some companies do mix oat, water, amylase, oil, sugar and whatnot.
Whereas the oat milk I have at home, genuinely just lists as ingredients: water, oat, salt.
In the descriptive text, they do tell, though, that they ferment the oats.

i assure you, every oat milk you have purchased has used enzymes to convert the starches to sugars. otherwise it would taste like paper.
actually i made it at home once with oats and water and it tasted fine. maybe you just have a super American palate?
chugging starch water because it’s not “sugar” is a baffling take.
