Nah, the scenario is more like bringing a plate of cookies to a pot luck and then refusing to divulge the ingredients.

Guests see the plate and wonder what's in the cookies. Some guests just want to know what flavor the cookies are (white chocolate? sugar cookies? macadamia nut? peanut butter? coconut?) bc maybe they're curious or maybe they just don't like sugar cookies. Some guests are vegan. Other guests have nut or gluten allergies that could be triggered.

Guests wonder about the contents and the cookie provider says "well I guess you'll just have to try them and find out! They're delicious, I promise!"

So some guests try them (the guests who like every type of cookie and don't have dietary restrictions to worry about), but the guests with allergies and the guests who hate certain flavors and the guests who don't like surprises say, "okay, well, no thanks. I guess I won't eat your cookies."

da

This is a much better analogy.

That analogy would hold up if there were no tags on the story. There are tags. Fandom, Pairing/character(s). That's like bringing your cookies and labeling them "peanut butter cookies," but not listing out the entire recipe. If you're someone who can't eat wheat or eggs, then you're going to have to pass on the cookies. They might not have those ingredients, but there's a strong possibility that there's something you don't want in there. But if you're just looking for peanut butter cookies, well -- they're right there under the peanut butter cookie sign.
