This is interesting, but I don’t understand what you’re trying to say and I’m skeptical of the conclusion. How does this square with half the brain being myelinated axons? Are you talking about adult brains or child brains? If you’re up for it, maybe let’s have a call at some point.
Half the brain by >>volume<< being myelinated axons. Myelinated axons are extremely volume-wasteful due to their large width over relatively large distances.
I’m talking about adult brains. Child brains have slightly more axons (less pruning and aging loss has occurred), but much less myelination.

Happy to chat at some point.
