No, by understanding the scale of the problem we're talking about. There
simply isn't the data or the people to collect it. If we took the entire
GDP of the US for 10 years it wouldn't pay for it. We also don't know what
data to collect to verify the models either.

You could certainly make some dinky problem and claim to extend it, but it
would be like extending 2-body solutions to n-body - don't work. These
problems don't scale exponentialy, they scale factoraly (much faster).

Hell, we can't even manage a few dozen wolves in Yellowstone and you want
to seriously postulate some black lab has solved the
problem...extraordinary claims...
