Cause a map is flat, and the Earth is curved. Can't force a curved image onto a flat surface w/o losing something.
Maps are distorted because you can't project a 3-D thing onto a flat thing (paper) likewise you can't show a Hypercube (fantasy 4-D shape) as a 3-D projection. And can you see a fourth Dimension hanging around anywhere? anyway. The best way to show why maps are distorted is follow these steps exactly.
(1) Get an Orange, and nothing else.
(2) Peel away the skin gently so it in one piece.
(3) flatten it out carefully on a hard surface, like a table.
(4) It explains itself really.
(5) You may eat the Orange, if you want to.

A globe would be more helpful as maps depict distorted images.
Some problems with cartogram maps include distortion of shapes and sizes of regions, difficulty in accurately representing geographical features, and potential confusion for viewers unfamiliar with the concept of distorted maps. Additionally, cartogram maps can sometimes oversimplify complex spatial relationships and may not always be appropriate for detailed analysis or comparison.
