Sounds like a failure of pschiatry. I don't accept the conclusion that faulty brains are 'unlikely to be the root-cause'. This is like a systems engineer stating 'this issue is definitely not hardware-related'. Maybe you have zero proof that it's hardware-related; maybe you need to work harder at debugging.

In this case, the hardware gets altered over time due to throughputs in the energy generating system, so isolating system failures such than you can conclusively state "it's a defect in the hardware that originated in the design and manufacture" is quite tricky, especially given the long life and myriad use cases of the hardware in question.

The thing that distinguishes human brains from computers is that the software one runs (or is forced to run by circumstance) causes the hardware to change over time.

That systems engineer would be stupid to completely rule out software related root causes to a bug that is only evident on the application i/o level when they have no tangible reason to do so. It's not only a failure of psychiatry, but also neuroscience. The scientific community is still very much in the dark in understanding how biology transcends into consciousness
