Best Answer

Like comparing a wooden stage coach drawn by horses to an all steel engine powered automobile (a car).

Think about it: An 18th century battleship wasn't even a battleship in today's sense of the word. It was a wooden ship powered by cloth sails; like a wooden stage coach drawn by horses. No comparison.
