Seems we can't yet simulate a 302 neuron worm brain (C. elegans) despite having its connectome, so not correct. https://wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenWorm

Do all of these worms use exactly 302 neurons for locomotion? Or is 302 just the number found in a specific worm that was disected?

Specifically 302. Each worm has the same brain, down to the cell.
