I think analogies that are supposed to make things easier to understand end up making things more confusing when you never get the straight answer. Even if I don't really know quantum mechanics, I can relate to the fact that the proton is really made of mathematical models plus whatever it looks like in a collider -- that's all we have to work with, and it defies any simple description. I can understand that.
