They are red only after cooking!Most lobsters are red. You only need to specify the color of a lobster if it's not red.

My point stands. The restaurant in question is only going to bring you one once it's been cooked. (And they're red (brownish red, maybe) even before cooking!)They are red only after cooking!
Potayto potahto. We're dances of light performing on a meat stage.literally or metaphorically
And those would need a descriptive adjective distinguishing them from the rest.Some of them are blueish!
That's where you make blood!in your bones
On your "potayto potahto" point, there's a book called Metaphors We Live By that has as its thesis the claim that we act and think in terms of metaphors. At one point, the authors take up the question of whether we have any experience at all that isn't framed metaphorically, and their answer is no. Even our most basic-seeming physical experiences, we understand metaphorically. It's metaphors all the way down, as it were. It would seem you have felt Lackoff and Johnson's thesis in your bones, as it were.

If the starting domain is internal (which has to be, since experience is internal) you simply wouldn't be able to form a concept of something without making (intuitively) a first metaphor of it to the internal experience. This quickly becomes an exponential function, though, since all sorts of intermediate metaphors are internal-internal. For example: you see a first, single object, so you then make a link to its identified qualities to the mental image of it, but at that time you already have factored in all sub-components as their own internal-internal metaphor: one, first, external, object, set of qualities etc. It is highly unlikely that information for internalized objects exists solely in one place instead of this scheme where images (internal metaphors) are spread to other points of storage.On your "potayto potahto" point, there's a book called Metaphors We Live By that has as its thesis the claim that we act and think in terms of metaphors.

Coca-Cola Christmas truck in flames in Romania
A Coca-Cola truck caught fire while driving down a busy road in Romania’s capital Bucharest.
It is unclear how the fire started. The driver managed to leave the vehicle before it was engulfed in flames.
Firefighters later arrived to put out the blaze, and there were no reports of injuries.
The soft drink company told local media it was taking measures to prevent further incidents.
