Analogies have power to help one people understand some new thing superficially, however they do not have _predictive_ or logical power. An analogy is not an isomorphism. You can _not_ *make* an argument from an analogy (including inviting others to draw conclusions from one) - that would a fallacy.
Others pointing out that disconnect between the analogy and the actuality is therefore quite valid.
