And “Apples and Oranges” is…well, just listen:
Contrast implies an a priori assumption that they’re different. Compare implies no prior assumptions.
Which is why so many exam questions in my schooldays began “Compare and contrast…”

Isn’t that contrast and not compare?
Contrast is the dark side of compare.
Oranges are rounder than apples.
Interesting fact: if the Earth were the size of an orange, it would taste terrible.
