Now if the burger had no pickles, that would be a better analogy.

I'm just saying. It could be rectified later. In your analogy, the Camaro would have to be missing the motor. |
This is the proper analogy -- imagine that your favorite fast-food chain runs commercials promoting a new burger that will be coming out soon including showing "pre-release" pictures of what the burger will "look like" -- and you believe, based on early marketing materials, it will have three slices of red onion. When the day approaches, however, you notice that the commercial has changed slightly and the picture only shows two slices of onion and they are white! <gasp>
It would be unreasonable to think that you should be able to demand a five-cent discount when you go to buy one because it doesn't match your earlier vision of the burger but it would be simply ridiculous for someone else to suggest that you should should prostrate yourself at the feet of some fast-food magnate for honoring you with the privilege of buying their burger.
Or am I missing something here?
