As I say, we might not be able to "understand" the nematode's brain before we're able to understand its constituent parts. We don't really understand the neuron itself. Nor do we understand glial cells and their function. ...Nor, indeed, do we fully understand _any_ cell. Case in point: Both neurons and glial cells feature Golgi apparatuses, which remain mysterious... As we neither understand nor can simulate a brain made up of neurons and glia, what makes you think that our lack of a nematode simulation is a big deal? Seems to me that it is rather to be expected. But when our biological models improve, simulating a nematode brain -- or _any_ brain -- will not be beyond us.
