As I said many times before on this forum, the instrumental approach is that the map-territory distinction is a model, i.e. territory is in the map, not in the territory :)
But should my map mark territory as being in the map, or in the territory?
It helps if you start by tabooing the words "territory", "real", "exist" and explaining what you mean by them.
