Ah, but it's not an analogy. Each time I comment I narrow the scope of your opposition. That is progress. Already you have shrunk it significantly, with each comment yielding more modifiers that diminish the space you cover. With sufficient effort, I could constrain it to the size of a pea, and then we will both be faced with the fact that situations that applying so many restrictive modifiers is akin to adding epicycles. Then it will be obvious that my original statement is correct: it is about aggregate risk.
But perhaps that is best left as an exercise for the reader.
