This is an important point where I agree with Marc. With or without 
comp the necessity of distinguishing the map and the territory cannot 
be uniform, there are "meaning"-fixed-point, like when a map is 
embedded continuously in the territory (assuming some topology in the 
map and in the territory, this follows by a fixed point theorem by 
Brouwer, which today admits many interesting computational 
interpretations.
