So if current understanding is non-exisitent and this model will be crude.....then I guess the current climate models are based on guesses?

I wager a month’s salary that the current guesses don’t reduce warming.

I read something a few years ago that said current MGW computer models had to start with a warmed Earth, and work backward using a lot of fudge factors.

If I understand the work of Edward Lorenz correctly, the only way for a computer model to be accurate beyond a few days would be for the model to know the exact energy vector of every molecule of everything everywhere.
