How to detect imperfect simulation: some unexplainable missing wavelength bands, or quantisation of results where it should be continuous would hint at "cutting corners" in simulation, like steps in energy levels from very distant xray sources perhaps?
As far as we know, our "physics" does not show any possible imperfections, or we didn't thought of all imperfections which could arise in simulation.
