Oh, maybe I got what you mean (?): The "arrows" A-->B etc represent consequtive states in (temporal) sequence. Not "neuron axons" in brain/CLA. Therefore the assumption "connections go both ways, implying also B-->A" is false. Note that the knowledge (eg points "A", "B",..) are represented in a distributed manner (see SDRs) - that is by eg 200 neurons.
