Maybe a slightly better analogy: with the URL, if you know your address, you can go straight there. With a car/driving, it would be like instant teleportation.

Maybe a slightly better analogy: with the URL, if you know your address, you can go straight there. With a car/driving, it would be like instant teleportation. Not knowing the URL means using Google search, and not knowing the street address means driving around and seeing a bunch of billboards. Removing the URL bar is like removing the ability to teleport so you can make sure people see the billboards.
