Note what is required to do something like this:

You need to solve a 5-dimensional (+ time) nonlinear integro-differential equation. Not only that, but you need to keep it going for a long enough time for turbulent fluctuations to average out, and cover both ion and electron scales (that last bit is the big new contribution here).

And once you're done with that, you need to repeat it at even higher resolution as evidence that what you're seeing is physical.

Bravo!
