No, matrix multiplication is the system humans use to make predictions about those things but it doesn’t describe their fundamental structure and there’s no reason to imply they do.

That is literally, literally, what it does.

One may argue that it does so wrongly, but that's a different claim entirely.

The predictions matching reality to the best of our collective abilities to test them is such a reason.

The saying that "all models are wrong but some are useful" is a reason against that.
