My claim is that your model is far too simple to model the complexities of human attraction.

Probably. But that doesn't mean that it can't be modelled. Or are you instead claiming that it shouldn't be modelled?

The first can be remedied by better models - and starting with a simple approximate model surely isn't a bad first step. The latter can't be fixed by modelling obviously.
