It’s only valid if, coincidentally, the market value of hashing happens to be in the ballpark of the revenue the content producer needs.

I'm also not seeing the analogy. Ad revenue is part of the market/ecosystem for ads and sites. Hash power just is what it is, and the value of it does not seem to be connected to the content.
