Muscle Milk is nearly 50% protein and like 15% carbohydrates, soylent is less than 30% protein and nearly 70% carbohydrates (without the oil packet). That doesn't seem very similar to me. Soylent, for me, is waaaay too heavy on carbohydrates. Which is sad, because it's convenient enough to be worth the price for me if it had more appropriate macronutrient ratios.

It still has better macros than the vast majority of Americans' diets... what a low bar that is, though.

But you're absolutely right. Too many (presumably simple) carbs.
