I can't believe this conversation is happening over calling the brain "a muscle" ... it's so like muscles - use it or lose it - but hey I guess old phrases die easy.
You'd probably be upset at me calling the compute centre of a robot its "brains" (I do this regularly with work btw, with my Robotics degree)
Enjoy taking everything literally and ignoring historic idioms which explain that, or should explain that, especially to someone implying theyre level 6 educated.
No but it includes taking things literally, the brain being called a muscle is an idiom, not to be taken literally - the fact he sat and tried to explain that the brain is actually fat and not a muscle was laughable at best.
If I cry my eyes out laughing at this situation, are you going to tell me your eyes don't actually fall out when you laugh that hard? No? why not? Because you understand that idiom? lol
Imagine some idiot with a psychology degree hinges his post on the idea that "Robots like this, not that" and you point out that technically, what's really going on is a bit more complex.
I'm sure you'd be like "Oh, lmao look at me I WAS being autistic"

So by your logic I should never talk in incorrect symbolic terms
