idunno Wrote:Fallen, you're simply defining choice in a way that requires "choices", but you're not stating how the analogy fails.

Definition of CHOICE (from Merriam-Webster

1 the act of choosing : selection <finding it hard to make a choice>
2 power of choosing : option <you have no choice>
3 a : the best part : cream
b : a person or thing chosen <she was their first choice>
4 a number and variety to choose among <a plan with a wide choice of options>

Of course I'm defining it that way, because that's what choice is!!
