you're criticizing *a 9 year old's* analogy because it's not a 1:1
allegory of real-world?

you also apparently missed the "Pretend ice cream stores gave away free
milkshakes.". the model is internally consistent and a good summation
model of the issue at hand. *which is exactly what an analogy is
supposed to do*- it introduces the core
concept/issue/conundrum/situation/what have you in a broken down and
simple matter.

i think you need a milkshake.
