I don't think so, either, except possibly to quibble about an analogy. Sorry if I wasn't clear on that. I was more attempting to discuss what seems to be the confusion you were responding to and make a more general point, that worrying about high-level models reducing to low-level models is potentially misguided if it's just reductionism for its own sake.
