I tend to agree with Chris Dent that “trying to define what is and is not a DT is not a helpful pursuit“.  A given system might technically qualify as a digital twin system, and it may completely satisfy one user’s use case but fail to satisfy another user’s use case requirements.

An owner buying a digital twin system should probably be asking “Does it satisfy my use cases?” rather than “Is it a bona fide digital twin system?”
