Well, in a word, yes. Dunno what more I can say without inducing
obfuscation instead of clarification (of what is actually a simple issue.)
The best way to get an understanding of what is involved, IMHO, is to do
some experimentation. Fit some models to some data, plot the fitted
surfaces (either as image plots or perspective plots) and see what the
results look like.
