That is really not the point.  If this is an argument, I have to guess that you 
are either not reading what I have carefully written or did not understand it,
because I am not disagreeing with you.  

I am saying that these conclusions are only relevant as far as they go, and 
are meaningful under some defined circumstances that they do not address 
behaviour during the most challenging seasons in bee management.  

Just as Newtonian physics will only explain phenomena over a limited domain, 
these observations only explain foraging behaviour in certain idealized and 
standardized conditions.

That's all I am saying: They are correct, but incomplete.
