Oh absolutely! I can remember being so confused for so long about how DNA could possibly code for everything in an animal until I learned how convoluted and indirect the effect is. So much of what genes do is totally mediated by the process of development, emergent interactions between cells. No wonder we so rarely find clean correspondences between genes and traits, its honestly a miracle even polygenetic statistics find anything.
