• Does Irino's 2026 equilibrium-dynamics model of ITD readout survive peer review, and does it actually supersede Jeffress's place-coding — or merely reproduce the same data by a different route?

• Irino's 2026 equilibrium-dynamics model inherits its cross-correlation front-end unchanged from Jeffress-extension models — its departures begin at the inhibition stage, not at the readout alone

• Irino's 2026 equilibrium-dynamics model offers no new anatomically distinguishable prediction — it is validated by reproducing existing physiological data, with the link to perception deferred to future work

• Barlow & Levick's 1965 divisive-inhibition model of retinal direction selectivity waited about 46 years for the 2011 connectomic wiring diagram that confirmed it

• Four documented cases of circuit theory preceding its anatomy cannot be distinguished from survivorship bias, because no survey counts the denominator of all proposed circuit theories

• The cerebellar long-term-depression rule Ito (1970) proposed — extending Marr's (1969) cerebellar model but flipping its synaptic sign from potentiation to depression — was confirmed by Ito's own lab in 1982, a shorter, same-scientist variant of the theory-precedes-anatomy shape

• Do systems-neuroscience circuit theories systematically precede their anatomical/connectomic confirmation by decades — a real pattern, or two cherry-picked cases?

• The 2020 Drosophila connectome confirmed the ring-attractor architecture Zhang's 1996 theory predicted for head-direction coding, about 24 years later

• A 2026 preprint argues sound-localization ITD readout arises from population equilibrium dynamics rather than Jeffress's discrete place-coding

• Jeffress's 1948 place theory of sound localization stood as pure theory for roughly four decades until Carr & Konishi's 1990 barn-owl anatomy confirmed it

• Neural circuit theories wait decades for anatomical proof -- and the cycle is repeating on the very model that first proved it out
