Many, many simulations work on very narrow parameters due to the difficulty in applying a full scale simulation for something that in the real world would be massive. Something like a global pandemic for example.

They can, and do, build upon real world examples elsewhere - the test being on the differences such as the healthcare system.
A simulation cannot be expected to change strategies unless the simulation is tested against various strategies. Otherwise there can be no right or wrong strategy. People are constantly whinging X should've been done on day Y, not day Z. Unless the simulation tested both those and other options, it is meaningless. To be 2nd in list of preparedness is not too shabby.
