It is, per the article, a large enough gap that designs from scratch can't predict performance and that simulation isn't always fully reliable. I don't know that the author is looking for a metaphysical answer to all of existence here. It would be nice to understand the functioning of something that moves billions of dollars of material around well enough that design is less dominated by trial and error.

I'm willing to entertain the possibility that my rephrase is too extreme. But I'd still argue "No one knows why X works" is an unhelpful frame that could give the casual reader the wrong idea.
