There's different types of computational photography, the ones which ensures to capture enough sensor data to then interpolate in a way which accurately simulates a different camera/lighting setup are in a way "more realistic" than the ones which heavily really on complex algorithms to do stuff like deblurring. My point is essentially that the calculations done has to be founded in physics rather than in just trying to produce something artistic.
Yeah, there's definitely a spectrum.
In a lot of ways, the perfect camera for most people would be one that captured a snapshot of how they'll remember the scene, so they can share the "memory", or look back and have a focus to reminisce on and reinforce that memory. That's where that question of how much reality matters, as opposed to perception for consumer devices.
