    they are reverse engineering the universe. sometimes the (almost actual) code doesnt work in edge cases and you need some bandaid.

    doesnt mean we necessarily have to rewrite the emulator from scratch.

      Well we know the math is factually wrong if it does not work in certain edge cases. We simply choose to ignore it because it works most of the time.

        exactly, the emulator in my example isnt the perfect physical hardware either. but we can use it while we figure it out.
