Why not? Its obviously not an accurate enough model for many things, but its a step in the right direction for making theories of the brain short of a full molecular simulation.

I don't understand the utility of this kind of thinking.
If it is wrong then it is wrong, why base more things on top of it if it is wrong?
It doesn't bring anything useful to the discussion, it is just low iq slop

Why use newtonian or lagrangian mechanics when we know its wrong? It was a important step, obviously far more correct than other nonsense interpretations of brain and consciousness that are still popular eg souls or magic. Aside from the biological inspiration, as a mathematical model it has proved its value beyond all expectations as well.
