There is a reason "batter" and "butter" have only one letter difference

2 things:
1) Take the amount of butter/oil/fat in the batter...then ADD a stick of butter. That's what you're eating.
2) There's a difference between having some fat/oil/butter integrated into a batter vs. a stick of whipped butter wrapped in batter. If you don't consider that a difference, I don't really understand where you're coming from.
To put it another way, I eat lots of things that contain a Tblsp of butter as an ingerdient. That doesn't mean I'd take a tablespoon, scoop out some butter from a tub, and eat it. Let alone wrap a stick of butter in something that contains a Tblsp of butter and eat that.
