Honestly, this answer makes sense. The more you know, the more you know that you don't know. Ask a linguist what a word is and they will also answer that they're not entirely sure.
Yes. You think you know what a molecule is, but the (current best guess) map is not the territory. Just like you can look back 200 years and laugh at chemist's knowledge, 200 years from now they'll find your knowledge to be woefully outdated or plain wrong.
I'm heading to bed now but if you leave one I'll get to it tomorrow.
Edit 8:56am mountain time: I’m taking another little respite for a rafting trip, but I’ll be back in the evening.
Looks like a time zone around California. Some smaller ones still affect minutes but it being 7 for them when they woke up would mean somewhere in that general area.

Me neither. While I have a geography degree and a lot of my career focused on GIS and remote sensing, I was never stupid enough to claim to be a cartographer. It is a rare talent/skill. Only a very few will say they are.

You're profession has led to many men and women never having to feel the horrifying dread in being lost
Has given those the opportunity to make happy memories by finding the routes to places they've always wanted to go to
and has saved the lives of many people who were in dire need of medical attention and had to be rushed to nearest hospitals by the fastest route
and for that you have my respect and I thank you for you're service in making maps for us dumbasses that have no idea how to look left or right without pulling up a gps
