I think we may be aligned in thinking that the evolution of the complexity within our cells is a greater marvel than the evolution of complex intelligence building on the base of the eukaryotic cell. But perhaps we don't need to model cells, we could use real cells for that. If the connectome is the fragile short lived structure, we could model that in software, with the cellular level modelled by a vast array of vivisected tardigrades. Ok probably not tardigrades, probably small replaceable batteries of human neural tissue. But I do like that phase about future humans being 'bootstapped from tardigrades"
