... wouldnâ(TM)t that virtual world give a false sense of correctness to the models you create and finally download into physical machines? Real world will still be orders of magnitude more gnarly and low level chaotic.

This particular use-case is using a virtual factory to benefit a real one. That doesn't mean it will remain that way going forward. Perhaps virtual widgets, manufactured in a virtual world, for a virtual world, won't have a need to cross the boundary into the physical realm in the future.
Something tells me our new virtual construction and manufacturing plants will ultimately turn into this as we start running out of physical jobs for humans to do in meatspace.
It wouldn't have the same meaning in a virtual space. In some sense, programming is manufacturing for a virtual realm. You take raw materials (bits and bytes) and transform them into useful tools that perform specific tasks on the computer. On the computer however the raw material constraints have to do with physical limitations (RAM, CPU) and the capability of programmers to operating within them to accomplish whatever task you need done. But the idea is the same as physical manufacturing, just with di

that would not be what I consider manufacturing.
Perhaps not.
