Brain architecture is the result of an optimization process. So what really matters for reproducibility is the optimization problem itself.
The most remarkable thing about the brain is that it wasn't designed. As a result, how the brain works is largely an irrelevant question.

The hypothesis space, the objective function(s). Everything else is noise.

Eclipses weren't designed but it is still a good question to ask how it works. Puzzled by the assertion.

The eclipse itself is not interesting. What matters is the equations of newtonian physics. Find the source.

Well, it's still an interesting question if you're in the field of neuroscience :)

Was the universe designed? Is it relevant to know how it works? In the age of Trump, your tweet rivals in obscurantism Sir...

"Survival" is way too broad. Need to ask narrow questions within a narrow search space.

It's relevant if you care about getting a not-working brain, well ... working.

How the brain works is relevant to billions of people.

Although I would like to think so, what about the entire field of neurology? They need to know how the brain works, [1/?]

I think he's saying, what you really want to know is: what optimizations have gone in to the brain's active mechanisms.
