a tension: dissonant? productive?

More thoughts on the "messy/inaccurate opposition" or border between a brain and a machine in The American College and University: A History (on being educated into increasingly focused attention) and Older Brain Really May Be a Wiser Brain (on increasing diffuse attention as we age).

Hm...a tension? dissonance? there?
with education working against the brain's "natural" tendencies?
trying to "mechanize" them?
productive or....?
