I agree with Justin on this one. Simulations run using CG that is not optimized for reconstruction may not actually reflect the type of interactions you are looking for. The current result of this simulation may not directly correspond to a full atomistic result, so even if a reconstruction were performed you would most likely NOT be able to draw conclusions from it.
Otherwise, everyone would run really fast simulations in CG, then reconstruct their systems afterward. :) Quoting "Justin A.
