Fwiw I mostly just thought it was funny in a way that was sort of neutral on “is this a reasonable frame or not?”. It was the first thing I thought of as soon as I read your post title.
(I think it’s both true that in an important sense everything we care about is in the Map, and also true in an important sense that it’s not, and in the ways it was true it felt like a kind of legitimately poignant rewrite that felt like it helped me appreciate your post, and insofar as it was false it seemed hilarious (non-meanspiritedly, just in a “it’s funny that so many lines from the original remain reasonable sentences when you reframe it as about epistemology”))
