And by “explain” I do not mean produce extruded textual explanations which they sometimes can (but often very poorly). Rather I mean that producing an ML model that tracks or seems to track or reproduce an object phenomenon is simply not and never can be a theory or explanation of that phenomenon.

Like, handwriting recognition obviously works decently well and is pretty old. It is, however, *not* a theory of writing. Handwriting recognition models tell you *nothing* about how handwritten text grapholinguistically functions!
