Nope. The usage is to the same point. Neither is literal or absolute.
Dictionary links don't trump context.

I don't understand. One is comparing something to something else. The other is an idiom. It's a way of speaking, a term.

When one says something is "cool" they do not mean it is literally a lower temperature than the surrounding area. When someone says something is "like the Fonze," it is saying that person has things in common with Aruthur Fonzarelli. Or are you saying that if someone says something is "like the Fonze" they aren't making an actual comparison between the subject and Arthur Fonzarelli?
