To me all these mapping and monitoring efforts always seem like trying to reverse engineer Microsoft Word's grammar checker by measuring electrical signals on various parts of a computer that somehow got into the 18th century.

I really hope we can realize how the whole thing works by looking at its parts. But I doubt it will bring the breakthrough. On the other hand maybe there is this one mechanism that we have to discover to make sense of all the parts. Then those efforts will form the groundwork for an explosive understanding.
