> It's obvious we need a physical environment, that we perceive it, that it influences us via our perception, etc., but there's nothing special about embodied cognition.

It's also obvious that we have bodies interacting with the physical environment, not just the brain, and the nervous system extends throughout the body, not just the head.

> if a process is not only computational, it is not computational in its entirety. It is totally superfluous. And the assumption that mental processes are not computational places it outside the realm of understanding and falsification.

This seems like a dogmatic commitment to a computational understanding of the neuroscience and biology. It also makes an implicit claim that consciousness is computational, which is difficult to square with the subjective experience of being conscious, not to mention the abstract nature of computation. Meaning abstracted from conscious experience of the world.
