Does the fact that a deterministic model describes a system to the level of precision that we care about make the underlying phenomena deterministic to any arbitrary level of precision (which TRVE determinism would imply)?
No, but to me it suggests that it wouldn't be unreasonable to act on the basis that those phenomena are fundamentally deterministic at some level of awareness (unless doing so made one miserable.)
