is that quote meant seriously? certainly it's obvious that the analogy doesn't work. we do have signs plastered around the countryside that are recipes for driving, they just actually include the ingredients. i would think the same applies to code, but rather than recipes, to hold the analogy, you are providing templates for recipes, or maybe style guides for writing recipes. (bad analogy, imho.)
