I hope you know of the esteemed fellow, Alan Moore?
I think his ideas touch on your understanding of the "perfect description as the thing" [1] and the linked interview is well worth reading.
I'm also curious if this strays into the philosophical area of phenomena/noumena in the transcendental idealist school of thought where a thing-in-and-of-itself [noumena] is unique and unknowable, we simply access representations [phenomena] of the thing? So I would say your perfect description (and Alan Moore's gods) are some class of entity that somehow become both phenomena and noumena??
