I haven't thought as much about it as you have probably, but ok you get 90% of the way there, but now what? How do you get that last 10%? It would be a huge amount of work right?

Isn't that usually the case? That the first 90% are as difficult to achieve as the next 5%, which are again as hard as the next 3%?

Basically the argument is that ML would be able to get there easier.

you get the last 10% by running a calculation for that (which itself is not necessarily accurate...). The whole situation is a little bit like Plato's cave... And also from what I've seen so far, those models either are 90% there or they are overfitting like hell.
