What I'm getting at is that it doesn't matter if the software is expressed in electron arrangement or plugs or neurons, if it's computable. I don't see any trouble here distinguishing between connectome and neuron.
What I am saying is that ifnyiu can't separate software from hardware, you are dealing with software in a reifiable sense.
Hardware is never computable, in the sense that simulated planes don't fly.
