The point being?

Total control of the gas by the two parties, which has already been used as an economic weapon. And an attempt to shut the USA out.

Please demonstrate how the analogy is false, instead of resorting to ad lapidem.

There is no total control. That’s a direct link between a producer and a consumer. Nobody cuts others from the existing infrastructure. The intermediaries are losing their transit monopoly though.
And above all Poland and Baltic states has LNG terminals to get gas by sea from anywhere they wish, US included. Ukraine might get its gas from Poland as well.
Nobody gets frozen even if Russia and Germany want it although the idea is laughable.

“Total control of the gas by the two parties,”
*************************************
Yes...kind of like total American-Canadian control of the gas piped between our two countries. This is as it should be between two sovereign countries like the US and Canada or like Russia and Germany.
