However to suggest that just because science may not fully understand
the full details of the many processes involved, that such models have
no predictive value seems 'nonsense' and allows one to reject the hard
work of thousands of scientists who are using and validating these
models.
Of course I made no such suggestion -- that was Freeman Dyson. My point was quite the same as yours: to just say "the models are based on the Navier-Stokes equations" sweeps a great deal of hard work under the rug.
