Why is a food web a more realistic way of portraying an ecosystem than a food chain?

Food chains are overly simplistic as representatives of what typically happens in nature. The food chain shows only one pathway of energy and material transfer.
Now, a food web is a set of interconnected food chains by which energy and materials circulate within an ecosystem.
So they're both different.
