Grandfather always said. I never ask a lady for a piece of face. When I'd say she's ugly. I was like 6 or 7 the 1st time I remember it. Took me 20 years to figure it out. I miss that ole man.

It’s six one way, half a dozen the other.

I gotta say, perceptions vary, but when you’re dealing with a crazy person you often find yourself in a broken record, Groundhog Day scenario where you’re trapped in the same situations, comments, arguments, and unable to move past it. So in my experience this is valid
Additionally, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is called practice, whether in a sport, an instrument or rehearsing lines.
You can find yourself in the same argument and situations with a sane person routinely as well.

once you eat the cake, you don't "have" it any more.
if you eat your cake at lunch, you don't have THAT cake to maybe eat after dinner.
I think the expression would make more sense if the example wasn't "perishable". There's some urgency in eating a cake instead of hoarding it.

“You can’t have your cake and eat it too.”
The original expression was "you can't eat your cake and have it too" meaning once the cake is consumed you no longer have a piece of cake. It makes more sense that way but society just adopted the reverse expression for some reason.
That's actually how they caught the Unabomber. One of his family members suspected him and turned over some of his writing samples to the FBI and they did a linguistic comparison to the manifesto looking for similarities. They zeroed in on "eat your cake and have it to" thinking he made the same strange mistake but he was actually using the correct phrase and everyone else was using the wrong one.

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.
