Yes, you just have variables, which are basically just labels, not careful and ground-truthed simulations of biochemical processes that develop from first principles.

If Erwin Schrödinger or other great math/logic modeler were here right now then you would be in big big trouble, for saying that.

Operational definitions are not a substitute for being able to make it happen on paper, then later on a computer screen. All else is just talk...

You are neither a mathematician, logician, nor modeler.
You don't even understand the scope and limits of models.

Being able to 'make it happen on paper, then later on a computer screen' is the arena in which screen-writers work.
Snow White quite superbly models the interaction of poisoned apples, kidnapped princesses, and mining dwarves.
It tells us nothing about the pharmacology of toxicity, the structures of royalty, nor mining technology.

Screen writers (and authors of computer games) are unencumbered by the natural world in much the same way that you are unencumbered by intelligence of any sort.
Or a decent humility.  You so very very much to be humble about.
