Yeah I believe what you say about that long-distance connections not that many.
I meant that there might be more non-long-distance connections between neighboring areas. (E.g. boundaries of areas are a bit fuzzy iirc, so macrocolumns towards the “edge” of a region are sorta intertwined with macrocolumns of the other side of the “edge”.) (I thought when you mean V1 to V2 you include those too, but I guess you didn’t?)
Do you think those inter-area non-long-distance connections are relatively unimportant, and if so why?
Thanks!
