The UO Spaghetti Ananlogy (I.E. why a new client)

I just came up with the spaghetti code analogy, and why their approach is wrong lol.
You are tasked to produce 1000 parallel lines of spaghetti noodles. You are given two options. Use an existing, notted up plate of saucy spaghetti. Or make your own from scratch.

With the existing plate, you wash off the sauce (all the other dev teams), then commence to unknotting the noodles.

From scratch, you have to:
Grow the wheat - graphics engine
Build a grindstone - tool sets
Grind the wheat - compile code
Gather other ingredients - hire the talent
mix the ingredients - programming time
form the ingredients- alpha
dry the spaghetti - beta
line the spaghetti up - release.

Plus, he didn't even mention that the previous dev teams never really agreed on what type of noodles to use in the first place. I'm sure there are some regular, angel hair, and fettuccine mixed in that mess.

And he forgot about the times when the old dev teams thought they were using noodles, but were really using speaker wire and cat hair.
