Maybe. It's possible too it would take something away. As it is we're left to wonder and we would of course lose that.
As I recall, Feynman made a comment in one of his autobiographies about an argument he had had with an artist friend about the beauty of a rose. His friend was frustrated with Feynman's reductionist approach to everything including the rose. Paraphrasing Feynman: "How does knowing more about how a rose works take away from its beauty?"
I wonder if Feynman understood that naivety is a thing you can lose or if he understood that but did not see any value in naivety, mystery.
Perhaps a counterpoint to Feynman: "When I Heard the Learned Astronomer".
