OK. I'll take the agreement in most of what you say. But not this part:

There are plenty of other, more traditionally accepted, labels for this stuff. *Why* do we think "left-brain" is better than any of those others?
I claim the answer is because McGilchrist truly believes in his *lift* from individual bicameral brain stuff all the way up to things like "the sacred". And if that's not the case, that why not use either an unladen term (coin something like so many do) or try to find a traditional label that best fits?
But p.s. thanks for saying that there are *some* things that are not metaphors. 8^D There are some of us that seem to think everything's a metaphor.
