In Etan, a Lesser Magic Item enchantment on a Staff can only be used by the 
wizard who created the Staff, but a "regular" Lesser Magic Item can be used 
by any Joe - even a non-wizard. 

To extend your metaphor, the Staff spell is home cooking, where you only have 
to please yourself. The Lesser Magic Item spell is cooking for a dinner party 
- or a restaurant. You have to prepare food for more people and worry about 
other's tastes.
