In this analogy Darrell fires an ICBM, because everyone has access to a ton of those for $20/mo.
The overall point is that doing (what used to be) the bare minimum is no longer even close to enough. To be considered adequate, you need super ironclad defense, because even low skilled attackers have access to very powerful weapons.
You said so yourself, everyone has a ton of those.
Darrell is firing an ICBM at a place that is being hit with hypersonic hydrogen bombs all the time. Either he's hitting rubble, or a damn impressive defense that he's unlikely to break.
