Could one say that they are basically performing certain physical experiments with particles, and obtaining measurements which would be extremely hard to obtain via classical simulations? Or is that a mischaracterization?

Not really wrong but using quantum effects to basically model real-world quantum systems is only a subset of potential applications.
