Use something with visible moving parts. 3. **The Edge Case analogy** — Where does it break down or behave unexpectedly? Use a relatable frustration. 4. **The Comparison analogy** — How is it different from ? Use two similar-but-different things. 5. **The Real-World analogy** — Where would someone encounter this in practice? Use a professional scenario.
