No, nourishment is just the bare essentials of cooking. In fact, we have a very large problem, literally and figuratively, because we often don't care about the nourishment. Consider junk foods and others that we call "empty calories" because they have no real nutritional value.
My point being that I don't really see the persuasive value of the analogy. It's a false-equivalence. The point was that yes many people often care deeply about the formatting of the code (myself included), but discussions around formatting are almost always a form of bike-shedding. A better analogy would be "randomly selecting the restaurant doesn't always lead you to your favorite place, but at least it prevents the interminable discussions about where to go."
