Agree mostly, except for "error correction .. inherently digital"
For an example of an analogue error corrector, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_governor
PS. cool fact; "governor" has the same etymology as kubernetes.

And coming from the other side: If it turns out that the brain is actually an analog computer without anything that can be rephrased as some form of sloppy noisy approximately-digital error correction, this would be incredibly important discovery, completely changing our understanding of theoretical computer science and complexity theory. P-vs-NP or the eventual creation of quantum computers would pale in comparison to the impact of discovering scalable analog computers.
