I like the map, and article. It does challenge you to look at the world differently and realise how little you actually know.
> The longer we use a tool without questioning it, the more of a truth it becomes no matter how wrong it is.
Comments like this do irk me though. Truth is not subjective, you cannot have more or less of it, and whether you use a tool has nothing to do with the underlying reality. Using a tool, in this case a map of the terrain, does not make it more or less truthful. A map can be more accurate, a better representation, a genuine attempt, but it cannot contain more truth. The truth is the terrain itself.
