What makes some overlaying maps ok while others seem absurd?

It’s an honest question, seeing as I’m probably doing the same right now. Equating vertical social control with Grid, and horisontal social control with Group.

What criteria should we follow to determine if it’s ok to overlay two fourfold models? Obviously, they should match in ideology somehow. Had I reversed it, and said that horisontal social control is like Grid, then it would have made no sense.

As for Heidegger’s model, if it works as a twofold model, there’s no point in making it into a fourfold model. Ockham’s Razor.
