I'm going by the definition you gave. One of the definitions was "like as." That means "similar."

"Similar" would be more like the word "paromoios". That is "nearly like" according to the greek.

Not the same as "kathos" which means just as, even as, or as.

So are you saying that "just as" means identical? I've already shown that can't be so. So the question becomes how are they different.

"Just as" cannot be taken in an absolute sense it this case. Like it or not, the Lord used hyperbole sometimes. For example, He said the mustard seed is the smallest of seeds. But it wasn't. He was just making a point.
