Very good analogy, thanks. Much better way of framing what I said in my first comment.

I'm thinking in future ages, people will look back at how primitive we were assuming that the pinnacle of human intelligence and personhood was contained in the brain. Much like we look back on people in olden times who thought emotions were situated in the heart.
