I would disagree on similar statements about pretty much any physical theory (or even, any theory at all). Our equations describe a model which approximates the real world to a good-enough degree in their scope of applicability, but is not the real world. (For example, standard QFT describes a world with a fixed background flat spacetime, and the real world isn't like that.)
