I think this metaphor is excellent.

The key point is the examples of things that seem silly early stage but obviously necessary later, like org charts.

Unfortunately, not everyone will immediately agree that it’s silly to have an org chart when you’re a small team or pre-PMF. And some people might never be convinced! But this metaphor sounds like a good way of trying to explain the fundamental differences between “where we are today” and “where we might end up”.
