There probably really is a series of core of generality insights in the difference between general mammal brain scaled to human size → general primate brain scaled to human size → actual human brain. Also, much of what matters is learned from culture. Both can be true at once.
But more to the point, I think you’re jumping to conclusions about what OP thinks. They haven’t said anything that sounds like EMH nonsense to me. Modularity is generated by runtime learning, and mechinterp studies it; there’s plenty of reason to think there might be ways to increase it, as you know. And that doesn’t even touch on the question of what training data.
