  Or saying that the only global maps we should accept are ones projected onto spheres. Same thing for partial global maps above a certain size threshold (projected onto partial spheres).

  I’m curious what that threshold is. Like how long do North/South roads need to be before there’s a non-trivial divergence towards the equator? How far do parallel East/West roads need to be before one is noticeably longer if measured from the same longitudes?
