It's not wrong to ask, how you deal with the answer is what counts here. If she was going vegan for imaginary health benefits, that'd be the time to say "hey nothing wrong with milk". If she chose veganism out of a sincere desire to not harm animals, then knowing that would be important so we could help her do that. It's just clarification for the sake of giving better advice.
Yes, often we see threads by people who think they need to eat vegan/clean/low carb/gluten free in order to lose weight so it is indeed important to know the reason behind a WOE in order to be most helpful.3
