    I prefer mine:

    literally every model is a metaphor and not a true representation of the actual phenomenon it’s modeling.

      Why use many words when few will do?

        I personally think that “all models are wrong” does nothing to stop people from simply thinking in terms of practical inevitabilities, when it’s actually extremely important to understand that figuring out what’s “actually going on” was never even the concern of science in the first place.
