Your bold part of your analogy is wrong.
I'll explain why,in the bounds of your own analogy that is,i'm not saying that it is necessary to go through a list of every variety and species of marine fauna in an attempt to find something that wouldn't put you in hospital.
What i'm saying is that it would be necessary to go through the whole list of every variety and species of marine fauna to determine the legitimacy of your claim ,that is, you are allergic to fish.In the event that i find a fish x that you aren't allergic to,then you'd have to either specifically point out that you are allergic to fish except x or conclude your claim is wrong.
Hope you get it!
