Logic is flawed somewhere
I think there is something fundamentally wrong with your argument. It might stem from the fact that you are using words you don't understand the context in which they get their meaning (hint: reverse engineering). Deriving a formula is not reverse engineering, that's call regression (curve fitting). Reverse engineering is inspecting an element to determine it's physical (or logical) structure. Using the word in the context that does not apply to engineering should have given you the hint that it doesn't mean what you think. Reverse engineering often require datamining (if you wish to determine the algorithmic or logical structure of software), disassembly (that is software disassembly for determining algorithmic structure or, completely different, hardware disassembly for determining the physical structure, or a Data Analytics (for logical structure of state machines, which incidentally can be reduced to datamining). Recording information and using algebra is not data mining.
