Yeah, in my opinion, if it's feasible to emulate/simulate something, it's a good thing to do. Of course, someone has to take the initiative to work on it. And who knows, as technology progresses, extremely accurate physics simulations may allow more things to be reproduced accurately, as long as the information's still out there.
