I thought it was a good analogy, it made sense in the context of the article.

Any analogy looks like a bad analogy if you stretch it beyond the authors intent and make out like that's somehow their fault or problem.

I think it's interesting to try think about including the chef in the analogy, but I don't want to entertain you because I feel like the tone of your post was unnecessarily rude, essentially: "duuuh, did you even read your stuff before pressing post, idiot."
