I don’t think this is quite where the analogy was. The brain’s information-processing features you describe seem to be analogous to the radio’s volume and clarity… it seems Eagleman was trying to compare the radio’s content not to the brain’s content, but to consciousness or something. At least, that’s the best steelmanning attempt I’ve got.
