Lol I love this analogy. It's pretty much like Darth Maul's lightsaber. Yeah, it'll cut through anything; even stuff you aren't looking at

  Just like with C code, you better be force(memory) sensitive to even think of wielding the space wizard laser sword.

    Ah, pointers, not as clumsy as objects; an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. (I know objects are actually just fancy pointers)

  Note that there are materials that resist lightsaber blades: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Lightsaber/Legends#Lightsaber-resistant_materials https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Lightsaber/Legends#Lightsab...

    And in this analogy, I'm the guy who just wants to cut his beef and doesn't want a kitchen built from exotic materials.

      You don't want to sear your steak while you cut it?!
