model trains

To be model trains for someone means to be happy about their situation. It is the opposite of being jealous or envious. If someone does better than you in a competition or such, you could feel jealous of their result, to instead be happy for them regardles of your own result would be to be model trains for them.
Wow, your house is so nice, I am model trains for you.

Scientific Model-Dependency

The insight that what we observe in science depends critically on the models we use to observe. Our instruments are built on models. Our data analysis assumes models. Our theories are models. We never access reality raw—we access reality filtered through models, and different models reveal different aspects. This isn't idealism (reality exists) but dependency: what we can say about reality is always mediated by the models we've built. Scientific progress is partly about building better models, but also about understanding what each model hides along with what it reveals.
"You think climate models are just predictions? Scientific Model-Dependency says: they're also what makes climate visible at all. Without models, you have weather, not climate. The model isn't just representing reality—it's creating the conditions for you to see it. Respect the dependency."

The insight that what we can know depends critically on the models we use to know. Our concepts are models. Our languages are models. Our theories are models. We never access reality raw—we access reality filtered through models, and different models reveal different aspects. This isn't idealism (reality exists) but dependency: what we can claim to know is always mediated by the models we've built. Epistemic progress is partly about building better models, but also about understanding what each model hides along with what it reveals.
"You think you know someone through their social media. Epistemological Model-Dependency says: you know the model they present, filtered through the platform's algorithms, shaped by your interpretive framework. That's knowledge—but it's model-dependent knowledge. You don't know them; you know them-as-filtered-through-your-model. Respect the dependency."
