Not so, we already understand that some neurotransmitters send smoke
signals that excite neurons while others send a inhibitory signal.

It's not the wind its diffusion that send the signal on its way, which
means exactly where the signal is sent is* NOT* critical and the time it
takes to transmit it can't be critical either. So you think technology will
find that duplicating this meager feat will be insuperably difficult. Why?
Sending a signal with a tiny informational content very very slowly and
successfully hitting a HUGE target seems to me to be the easiest part of
the entire thing.
