Perhaps the concept itself is flawed/illogical. Can one still have the proverbial cake even after the point of consumption. It may also be possible that the cake idiom is limited in application and, in a more extreme view, pedantic. The "can't have your cake and eat it to" example requires a specific definition of "have". What does the saying mean, precisely? Consider the fact that idioms can and do contradict each other.
