Software is a house. The more you lean into the analogy, the better.

I often tell clients "The first thing you asked me to do was to move a dining room chair into the living room. Then you asked me to do the same with the toilet. The latter only works if we tear out all the plumbing."

Non-coders seem to understand these analogies intuitively.
