14. Spin dynamics can be in principle always mapped onto a localized spin model of a sufficient range, but this can be a dangerous exercise: compare the Fe pnictides, where such mapping led to an unphysically drastic temperature dependence of the Heisenberg exchange parameters, until it was realized that proper mapping requires a strong biquadratic term; see A.L.
