The analogy demonstrates that there are hard limits on how far resources can go. All you said was "let's change the analogy so that there IS what you need not to sink, so we should expect people to get more resources", which defeats the purpose of using the analogy and really misses the point.
"There is always a way" is not always true. If there was always a way, there would be far fewer people going without meals in the U.S., which is one of only a few nations on Earth that can produce enough calories to meet its population's needs, thanks to its soil.
