Would you drive an extra 20 minutes (10 miles) to get the blizzard on the right?

Amount of butterfat is a single ingredient. A single ingredient does not determine the quality of a food product.
Even if two food products were identical except for butterfat content, it still wouldn't be an objective measure of quality because it only affects taste and taste is subjective. It's like declaring that one burger is objectively better because it has more chili pepper seasoning. Now imagine if the FDA declared that to call a product a burger, it needed to have a minimum Scolville level of 500,000. The FDA would have created the requirement as consumer protection because people expected burgers to be spicy. The label would have had nothing to do with quality.
Better =/= quality. You can prefer things of lower quality. Sure, it's only one component (I'd argue the most important one), but it's still an objective measure of quality. Maybe you can have just of high quality by using better quality ingredients other than that, but if you're skimping on this one then you're skimping everywhere almost certainly.
DQ is not a fancy ice dessert place. Everyone knows that. They're the bottom tier for it. It's fine to like that. We all have certain low quality things we like; junk food for example. It's OK. You don't need to pretend like it's high quality though.

Nah. FDA definitions exist to make large corporations more money. There isn't much else to it.
Congrats, you fell victim to propaganda!

Left is the DQ near my office. Consistently does that. Right is the DQ in the next town over.

This is wrong on so many levels. And I assume you're not aware of half of them.

What is a DQ? Either way no I wouldn't drive for any of them.

A sorbet or an Italian ice doesn't have butterfat at all, because neither contain dairy.
I think that it'd be hard to convincingly claim that an ice cream intrinsically is higher quality than a sorbet or Italian ice.
I wouldn't be happy if I was given sorbet when I asked for ice cream.

As a Canadian, lol.
I hope I'm aware of at least 3/4's of the levels of wrongness. We're pretty influenced by American culture but still have our own identity. It seems to be fading a bit with time but I remember travelling to the US and thinking why is the yogurt so sweet? Why is the bread sweet?

I mean, the english may have apple pies, but if JOLLY has taught me anything it's that they apparently are nowhere near as good as american apple pie, to the point there's a fancy pie restaurant in London that specializes in american pies.
There are fancy restaurants in London specialising in almost anything.

It's insane to me how expensive car ownership is
Around £0.50/mile I think is what they use here. My bike has already paid for its self in cost savings. I also suspect that value would be higher if you consider off road miles.

Aside from the environmental impact of driving 10 (!) Extra miles (or at all) for a tiny bit of extra ice cream, which is neither healthy nor needed. It just doesn't make sense on a personal financial level to waste so much gas to get a cheaper (per volume) treat.
For a European driving to get ice cream alone is ridiculous as many placed have ice cream shops in the town we live in that we walk or bike to. -
No. I could probably get 3 gallons of ice cream at the grocery store for what one of those costs.
And also for the price of the extra gasoline

Now I feel silly.

Haven’t seen an open Dairy Queen locally in almost 10 years.

Dairy Queen. An ice cream F&B franchise, with this post most probably about one in US

This is a shitty ad.

So one could get more in better quality cheaper if consumed regularly.

No you are right, too!
