It's hard to discuss "the map is not the terriory" without a reference point to the person who coined the term, Alfred Korzybski. I don't know General Semantics enough to guess whether he and Alex Karp would be besties today or not.
On the subject I also really like a story by Borges titled "On Exactitude in Science." In it depicts an empire so precise its cartography is 1:1 with the empire itself; hilarity ensues. Now, who hasn't felt that way about [insert whatever SDLC] from time to time?
