The visual cortex is one of the largest and most powerful cortices in the human brain. But it may be that vision's supposed to work in conjunction with the other senses. I think visual explanations work well for very simple visuals. As soon as higher order factors need to be factored-in, visual explanations are only sensible to the highly trained expert (think Feynman diagrams). Nice essay, nevertheless. A lot of time and work went into it, and I can appreciate that.
