Some other commenters here seem to think this article is (or should have been?) an introduction to systems thinking, or an argument for using it.
The article is explicitly framed as some advice, based in experience, on avoiding common pitfalls with using explicit models in systems thinking. As such I think it is a nice read. It is also full of links to other interesting work by the author, not least of which is a tool to assist in system modeling (https://github.com/lethain/systems), and links to other similar tools I was unfamiliar with (https://insightmaker.com), which will make for some fine weekend reading and tinkering.
