It just has nothing to do with reality...

A solar-centric model has nothing to do with reality either, because the Sun is not the center of the universe either.

Either model works, though one is more general than the other.

Godel's incompleteness theorem tells us that no model can possibly reflect reality perfectly.

All models are imperfect.

It has nothing to do with reality if you don't believe in math and believe in your "feelings."
