"Don't argue the metaphor" is such a good line for so many arguments. Noted and thanks.

Yeah. But truth be told, I think the use of the word "like" makes it an analogy.
Actually the use of "like" it makes it a simile. It's the explanation that follows that makes it an analogy.

Both analogies and similies are really just overlapping categorical subsets of metaphors.
