> You sit down and 10 menus (MCP tool definitions) are spread across the table
> There's no room left for actual food (your work)
> Every time you order, the menus have to be pulled out again
This is a bad analogy. Ordering repeatedly is uncommon except for tapas restaurants. You could easily put food on top of menus, but more commonly, menus are removed after ordering, thereby freeing the table (context??) for the food. If you're going to try to explain things by analogy, it's worth putting effort into making it more relevant.
