Taking into account the uncharted, (ultimately unchartable?) nature of quantum mechanics, is it conceivable that absolute order and absolute chaos do not actually exist beyond our limited perceptions and assumptions, and with our bias toward linear *approximation*?

Water molecules in a steady state; do we really know for a fact that there is not, on some level, to some degree, an unperceived measure of chaos going on at all times? By contrast, boiling water; is there not some measure of order within the obvious chaos, even at its most turbulent?
