    The closest thing I can give as a counter argument, to help get the idea, is to swap out the terms GCD, bloodspiller, and blood gauge, for something else.

    You need to eat food.
    You need to earn cash per day to get the food.
    But if you eat food, you must not work for the cash that day.

    Yes you earn the cash solely to eat the food, but eating the food is also a day lost that could have been used to earn more money. (yes, which is used to buy food, and eat it.)

    There are a few things taken out of the equation, solely to focus on the idea that a day is lost not earning money.

    But in your example, the goal is not to earn money, it's to eat food. "Eating food" is doing damage, and "earning cash" is gaining blood.
    And the claim is that, by not eating food, you'll gain more cash that will let you eat food.
