It is tiresome how so many people in this thread posit these perspectives as dichotomic.
There is no conflict between seeing something as a reduction into its constituent parts and model how it works, and seeing it as a whole and focusing mainly on aesthetics, sensation and emotion towards the object.
Simple example: As a car enthusiast and hobby mechanic, shifting between those perspectives is completely trivial. It's not even always a shift, but sometimes (but not always) a symbiosis of the two views.
