Wittgenstein's account, and theory of language games, is, itself, an example of Einstein's fruitful, versus misleading, analogies:
"... to uncover some essential features, hidden beneath a surface of external differences, to form, on this basis, a new successful theory (of language and language games) is important creative work." Einstein, p. 287.
