Of course it's not an equivalent exchange ^^ (at least to most) It serves only to simply refute the point that sharing is inherently fair. It's not and as I said, it can be but simply sharing to share is not fair :c If you would prefer a trail, I can do that too ^^

Suppose you and I are partners. We perform together. Our entire act is collaborative. We are both of equivalent appeal with more or less the same number of fans. How should the proceeds of our performances be split?

Suppose we tire of performing and enter the field of widget manufacture. We open a business together and both are employed by it. I manage to produce 3 widgets per day while you produce 5. How should the proceeds from widget sales be split.

Now suppose you don't like me anymore, but my love for you remains steadfast and I open a new branch office in attempt to mend our relationship, where I manage to produce one additional widget per day. How should the proceeds from widget sales be split?

Now suppose Raev opens a widget shop. His widgets are very well designed and reliable. He produces 3, but they stale and boring and nobody wants to by them. How should the proceeds of widget sales be split?

Our relationship continues to deteriorate despite my best efforts and you leave me for another cattle. Our business is torn like my heart, but we all continue in the widget industry. Our production and sales remain unchanged. How should the proceeds of widget sales be split?

Now suppose Trollolololol enters the widget industry. His widgets are by all standards ordinary, but he works 21 hours everyday producing and selling widgets. He produces 28 widgets, saturating the market and sells them all before we are able to finish ours. How should the proceeds from the sale of widgets be split?

tl;dr Find a better analogy.
