The secondary lesson here is, sometimes it's better to not try and force in an analogy to be cute. People start arguing about the analogy and miss the original point.
Even without the analogy I'm not sure what the original point is
I think one paraphrase would be to push the limits, but not to the point where you're the problem or asshole, and to use what you have at the moment wisely instead of waiting for the perfect solution to show up.
Force an analogy even if you haven’t figured out an applicable one yet
