The way I would word this: The box exists in the map, not the territory. Looking "outside of the box" is still looking at the map.
That is a clever way of putting it!
You could always tell them to think inside the chimney. If you're lucky they'll be so confused they'll look at the territory to figure out what you mean, and if you’re really lucky they'll end up thinking downstairs in the attic and never bother you again.
