The key to deciding if these models are useful, because they do produce something that might appear to be similar to a cardiac arrhythmia, and so could be said to produce a useful result, is that they can be falsified on the basis of specific predictions such as implying a range of conduction velocities within the heart that have never been measured in real life or that an arrhythmia can persist in a small piece of isolated tissue when all the experimental evidence suggests that a minimum volume of tissue is required to support an arrhythmia.
