But couldn’t the opposite be true as well? To say that a cell has a very specific tuning to a category shouldn’t it probed with a really large sample of concepts? After all the ~100 of the paper represents a fairly limited sample space

This review may be relevant. They argue that BOLD results mainly from the entrainment of blood vessels on the (low-frequency) envelope of gamma neural oscillations

Ultra-slow Oscillations in fMRI and Resting-State Connectivity: Neuronal and Vascular Contributions and Technical Confounds
Ultra-slow, ∼0.1-Hz variations in the oxygenation level of brain blood are widely used as an fMRI-based surrogate of “resting-state” neuronal activity…

Is the "homunculus" that supposedly monitors the activity of the mid-level visual cortex real or imaginary?

An important question than is: if this work was advertised as exploratory research, would it still be published in Science? (Of course, this is likely a problem that affects the publication process in general, rather than this paper specifically; we should probably work to change that)

And probably we didn’t even moved on completely. I think it’s still considered true by the general public
