the brain is still responsible for controlling the nerves. BRAIN damage is a fairly goofy abstraction of this. for example, brain-induced suffocation was originally light-heartedly passed as 'forgetting how to breathe'
i dont really see how this separation benefits anything. it turns a fairly understandable, distinct damage type into two super-similar damage types purely to make things less "weird" (by your standards).
what benefits do we get from this fudgy middle ground where one does "disability into suffocation then death" and the other "suffocation into disability then death"?
I don't think I can think of a single balancing case for a chem using the latter (where you're better off with a combo of BRAIN and LOSEBREATH), and the former is just what we have now.
