> Why do proteins fold the way they do?

I think the why is pretty clearly understood (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_folding), in the same way that we understand the mechanism behind the three body problem in physics or quantum computing. But that does necessarily imply that there is an efficient way for us to simulate/predict the results of having nature play out those mechanisms.
