This is very insightful and applies to many fields, maybe specially within STEM
Like for example the water flow analogy of current. It’s a great analogy that works to a great degree to explain and model a lot of things about electricity, but eventually breaks down
For 99%+ of the people and cases, the approximate analogy is perfectly useful
