Yeah, I largely agree. My comment was more to indicate that when Xcelerate thinks about simulating a biological process, he thinks on the level of simulating individual atoms, which is much more likely to make someone think about the fundamental physics of the problem. When I simulate biological processes, I think in terms of chemistry or stat mech. Rather than one molecule I'm dealing with collections of many types of molecules whose interactions are often ill defined anyway, so I'm much more likely to think "eh, the chemistry we have is good enough, let's just get on with it"
