Total number of possible permutations an adult human brain could be in and still remain conscious, over and above that of a baby’s. The most extreme edge cases would be something like a Phineas Gage, where a ~1 inch diameter iron rod was rammed through a frontal lobe and he still could walk around.
So fill in the difference with guesstimation
I doubt there’s literally 1000x more permutations, since there’s already a huge range of possible babies, but I chose it anyways as a nice round number.
How did you estimate the number of possible development scenarios till the age 25?
