The author is trying to have some fun. Perhaps she’s trying to empathize with a beginner getting their head around what ECS is.

We all have different perspectives because the lenses with which we see the world are different. It’s possible you didn’t enjoy it because you’re not avid fantasy explorer gamer. Maybe you didn’t need an introduction to what ECS is.

I think the complaint was that it made it _harder_ to understand. Analogies are helpful if the relationships they describe are already well-known, but just dropping _Royaume_ into a sentence is dumb and hurts readability (instead of, e.g., sticking with "kingdom", from the analogy).

Suggestions on how to improve it? Whether it's kingdom or not, it's just a cluster name which can be anything.
