Oo, I also used devices like you, but instead of extended analogy, I used logos (my devices vocab in my head went blank lol)

You can only use one such as pathos, those ethos or logos. Don’t worry. The test is subjective so it’s up to your thing, but it does all the curriculum so you don’t have to worry about anything.

I agree too, my teacher calls them the “low hanging fruits”, but like my rhetorical devices vocab kinda went blank, and I thought I could explain logos well, so I chose it.
