This makes some sense. However nature certainly does optimize as you can see with the sensory resolution from your hand vs the one from your back.
- agumonkey 4y agoI know, I mentioned "like us", there are optimizations, just not necessarily the same as the one we'd put in place. ps: note that I'm not knowledgeable about the topic, I'm just picturing an easy coupling between more cells and more neurons. It might be a totally different reason, maybe whales have a different metabolysm / development causing more brain mass for unrelated reasons :)
