Despite being less accurate, why were non$-$physical models favored over the physical Mississippi River Basin Model?

Non$-$physical models provided a higher degree of precision in predicting river behavior.

Non$-$physical models were more aesthetically pleasing and easier to display in museums.

The switch was made solely based on the technological novelty of non$-$physical models.

They offered greater flexibility, ease of modification, and were less resource$-$intensive.
