It's not a shitty analogy. Most people completely understand what it's getting at. Inability to understand is a reflection on you, not the analogy. And being pedantic is not a positive trait or intellectually impressive.

The distinction is important because an AGI developed by humans is probably going to have (at least vestigial) ability to communicate with humans in some way.

It's entirely possible that it will have no use for humans, but if that's what the analogy is getting at, it's doing so poorly.
