Actually, in some developing countries they encourage you to use formula rather than breast feed because it is not feasible for many women to get enough food to support breast feeding. I realize that the status thing is likely happening too, and it probably varies by country, but it is not unilaterally about status and is sometimes about the health of the mom.
