It can extend to mapping one function with rework on corresponding function of another system.
It can go further to mapping low level interrupt calls to operating system functions.
It can extend to completely parsing binary-level assembler and remap it into function alls of specific operating system running on same or different hardware.
However, wherever we call WINE an emulator or Not Emulator, it does not matter - we both know the functionality it gives and it is fine so.
I wish Wine developers best of luck, just that they dont get in the way of getting TRUE native code. Money is sometimes bad thing.
