Yes. And there's the inherent problem in arguing with analogies.
Here's another analogy:
"This car seats twice as many people, and accelerates twice as fast, but sadly will require twice as much motor oil when it's time for an oil change. We could have optimized and improved the car's design, but you would have had to wait two more months and it would've added $10,000 to the unit cost. It would've been madness to do."
We could sit here all day arguing about which analogy captures the actual situation correctly, or we could just talk about the actual situation.
