It really depends on what you mean by explanation. If you define explanation as something that is necessarily reductionist, then of course A-T explanations would not be real explanations. But why so? I think that would be an interesting topic to discuss by itself in a different thread. Meanwhile, it’s good to also watch Feser’s lecture on the laws of nature that we discussed here and his argument as to why the Aristotelian view explains laws of nature better than the conventional “regularity” view, which is basically no explanation at all, period.
