“There is no causation in the territory” is a claim about the territory. It cannot be asserted if the territory is unknowable.
You need to distinguish between a number of subtly different claims:
The territory is knowable, and known not to contain certain things (which are nonetheless useful for mapping purposes . (Eg. Nobody has 2.4 children).
The territory is only knowable , “via” human concepts (Kant)
The territory is unknowable, or equivalently correspondence between map and territory is impossible.
Etc.
We need not be so detailed. To make a claim about the territory is to be in the map, and thus the point is already proved.
To be in the map is to be in the territory.
