The Cubist chicken bit is sweet.

Lol it’s like so much of communication. We think we’re talking about the same thing and we understand each other because we never define things or state our assumptions. It’s almost like our social wellbeing depends on not defining things

TBH I do not agree that everything must be defined — Socratic fallacy, etc. But yes, I still agree with the spirit of your point: models do allow/promote/facilitate/enforce formalisation [if not always a clear semantic definition] which is extremely important.

I've worked on models where the implementations were for all intents and purposes identical and yet the models utterly different. Mind boggling.

No, it's basically the same story as the Cubist chicken.

The Cubist chicken story — as I understood it! — was two dramatically different models of Cubist chickens in their minds implemented in the same Lego blocks.
