Thank you for the link.

Make tools to be extensions of our bodies via immediate feedback is a useful idea (it is not the main point of talk, but it stands out to me).

As a side note: It might be even be literally true for physical tools i.e., a brain can physically change to see the tool as an extension of the hand (from a study about ape, its brain, and a stick).
