Well said.

I'd like to add (a bit off topic) that humans are not necessarily capable of causal reasoning, at least not alone. It's a cultural process where the true causes are separated from correlations in time, with lots of experimentation. Only with special training and in specific domains can we reason causally, and most population just learns the surface never getting to real understanding. In that regard we're like language models.

So part of what makes us so smart is not in the brain, it's culture itself. If you observe feral people - they never get far on their own.
