It's late, and my defenses are down. I agree that we could learn a lot,
had we the capacity to do so, but not from crayons.

They have no neurons at all, so they learn nothing. The child that has
many boxes and sorts each color into a box teaches them nothing.

A better allegory would concern human empathy. Those who have it can deal
with the fact that no two people are alike. Those who don't would rule
the rest of us without understanding the differences. That's evolution
in action.

  We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp,some are pretty, some
  are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors ... but
  they all have to learn to live in the same box.
