You are correct: I was really talking about photorealistim. But I don't
think brute-force means you couldn't exaggerate things or create
effects. It just means that the results are more accurate looking. Of
course, if you want to have a large area light which casts sharp
shadows...or transparent objects that create full shadows. :) I wouldn't
consider that a big loss.
