Yes. Physical science was not designed to talk about (Plato’s) ideas, only Aristotle matter. That is why it has never got the vocation of a theory of everything, unlike metaphysics and theology. But physicalist makes physics into a theology, which might make sense, but not if we assume that the brain is Turing emulable in a way relevant for getting a conscious person. That is not obvious, but result for the UDA. (Universal Dovetailer Argument or Paradox).
