I can program a computer to give you any result you want... what's the big deal?

The big deal is that this article discusses a computer model which gives a result consistent with observed reality. Thus, perhaps the model has something worthwhile to tell us.

You missed my point- I can program it to give a desired result especially if I have a known result.

Trust me on this- no computer program is anything more than what the programmers put into it.
