Fascinating discussion! Thanks for sharing this.
But, I can't help myself, I have to engage in my usual refrain here (sorry, lol), since it comes up in the second paragraph:
Brains are *literally* computers and information processing devices, it's not a metaphor!!! ๐

Or do you believe brains also have functions outside of computing/information processing..?
