No, you explained why it wasn't a direct comparison.

quote:

analogy — n , pl -gies 1. agreement or similarity, esp in a certain limited number of features or details 2. a comparison made to show such a similarity: to draw an analogy between an atom and the solar system


esp in a certain limited number of features or details
Limited details: animals, respect.
If all the details you mentioned were the same, there would be no need for an analogy, because I would just be restating the same situation (or making a direct comparison).

Yup, and pay attn to this. Atom/Solar system. Central mass with shite flying around.

Eagle/Buzzard. Eating old turtles versus young ones. Respect. Nope, not even close to an analogy. Not only is it not an analogy, it's just butt dumb.
