    What’s the mighty difference between holding a mast’s lightning-rod in the storm, and standing close by a mast that hasn’t got any lightning-rod at all in a storm?

    reasoning
    Both entities refer to 'lightning-rods' as protective devices for ships against lightning/storms. The types ('safety_device' vs 'safety_equipment') and descriptions are highly consistent, detailing their function for storm/lightning protection. The source mentions Stubb discussing its effectiveness, while the candidate mentions Ahab refusing to use them during a typhoon, both being specific narrative contexts for the same type of object within Moby Dick.
