I like this analogy in particular because it also explains how Vader might not have connected the dots that this was the same protocol and astrometric droids from his childhood.
When I was a kid I had an old apple IIe computer. An IT guy I knew gave me some parts for it that his company was discarding and I added them to my computer.
But if I were to see another apple II computer today, I would never assume that it was my exact computer from my childhood.

Well, computers don’t have distinct numbers/names they’re called by, either. There’s only one C-3P0 and Anakin called him that when he built him.
I don’t think Vader and the Imperials knew that the protocol droid’s name was C-3PO, though.
True, true, he wouldn’t know him on sight. He’s probably seen lots of golden protocol droids.
He didn’t recognize him because of the leg.
