I think if your exercise involves you regularly getting choked out you probably shouldn’t be expecting neurological benefits

No one is getting regularly choked out in BJJ. You always tap. The goal is not to injure your partner but to learn together. Source: 5 years of BJJ, I have never been choked out, I am not an idiot.
The only reason you'd ever get choked out in BJJ is because you lost the fight with your own ego.
That's a good way to put it. I trained in many gyms across two continents and never saw anyone getting chocked out in class.
