Question ¿Analogía?
¿Es esto correcto?
Sacar es a meter como echar es a atraer.

Yup,
To "put out" is to "put in" is analogous to "throw [away]" is to "draw inward [attract]"

"Apartar" = set apart, set aside... /vs/ draw into

I think both options may work, "echar" "apartar"...

Probably not as precise as the Russell-Wittgenstein logic, but valid enough...

Call me crazy, but when I read "echar", I thought of casting/hurling something away...

Ok, I'd not call you crazy for that...

But "echar" always reminds me the old "cuplé" that said, "Echa té, echa té... a la camarera le dice echa té..."

But that's bring the analogy too far away...
