Yes for "brain a prerequisite for intentionality".
No that the "brain is the limit for intentionality".
But yes for "you need a brain for intentionality"?

Please refrain from misrepresenting my answers.

Yes for :"Is a brain a prerequisite for intentionality?

No for : "Is that the parameter you are arbitrarily creating (as?) a limit for intentionality? "

Yes for: "No brain, no intentionality?"
