While those portions of the brain aren't specific to learning intellectual or academic information, they might be crucial to making sense of data, help in testing what we learn, and help bridge countless gaps between model/simulation and reality (whatever that is). Hopefully that makes sense. Sort of like... Holistic learning.
I wonder if our brains and bodies are not all that separate, and the intangible features of that unity might be very difficult to quantify and replicate in silica.

Then it releases neurotransmitters or changes the level of hormones in your body which in turn have cascading effects, and at this point information theory would like to have a word. "If our small minds, for some convenience, divide this glass of wine, this universe, into parts -- physics, biology, geology, astronomy, psychology, and so on -- remember that nature does not know it!" -Richard Feynmann
