Ok? I don’t think I did but does that really matter? The point still stands whether I used the idiom correctly or not.

Yes, that does matter. That would be the whole point of the idiom.

For example if I tried to argue a king can command the tide, and then used King Canute and the tide to prove my point, I would not only be not making my point stand but also confusing the crap out of everyone.

You seemed to grasp the point so, no, it doesn't really matter.
