Hopefully a useful analogy.
I think that's a pretty lousy analogy. Personally,
I would have used a slightly different analogy, like how toddlers are allowed to drink milk from their mothers' breasts but adults are not.

There were no other people to marry to get the human race off to multiplying. He oversaw and supervized this.
There were other people around. People who were living in the land of Nod, for example, where Cain's wife came from.

I do not think that there was a Pre-Adamic time.
I believe the first man was created the same day as the heaven and the earth in Genesis 1:1 as the generations in Genesis 2:4 declares.
I believe everything in Genesis 2:4 through Genesis 4:26 took place in the day the Lord God created the heaven and the earth.
You say how could that be?
Well there was no night until Genesis 1:5.
Based on this reasoning, we could go a step further.
Gen 1:6-13
6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." 7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the expanse "sky." And there was evening, and there was morning”the second day.
9 And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so. 10 God called the dry ground "land," and the gathered waters he called "seas." And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening, and there was morning”the third day.
In other words, in the first day there was no dry land, no vegetation, no sky, and no sea. Furthermore...
Gen 1:20-26
[i]20 And God said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky." 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living and moving thing with which the water teems, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth." 23 And there was evening, and there was morning”the fifth day.
24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, [b] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
[/i]
In the first day, there were also no birds, no land animal, no livestock, no fish, and no concept of reproduction.
But Gen 2:4 through Gen 4:26 made it clear that there were dry land, sea, sky, vegetation, birds, fish, animal, livestock, etc.

It's amazing how someone who has racked up almost 1600 posts never noticed before the practice makes perfect forum.
