Technically, if you build it up from nothing based on observations and inference it's a model, even if it looks eerily similar to something else.
If you cannot model other minds that cannot model other minds can you model other minds at all? If you can only model other minds that are like your own mind, are you actually modeling anything at all? It’s the tolerating-intolerance class of neurodiversity conundrums.

A mind that cannot model other minds is not a mind because minds are fundamentally social. A mind cannot even arise outside of a fairly lengthy social process.

Modeling other minds that can't model other minds takes much more of a conscious effort. People who "can't model other minds", often, maybe generally could, but it doesn't come naturally
