Exactly. The idea that bees could somehow be experiencing a six-dimensional manifold doesn't seem crazy to me.

Bee's have a ~million neurons and they have a simple language etc. Now you might assume they think like we do and then say "there brains are to tiny to do that" and then go off on a tangent. However, building a neural net with 50k neurons would let them do complex calculations without understanding them. They don't need to "think", flap wing, flap wing, flap wing, flap wing to fly just have a few cells which pulse every few fractions of a second and it works.
So, the calculation of a six fold manifold might be going on in their tiny brains but it's not thought just raw math. Evolving systems don't need to produce maintainable code they just need to work. The idea that our brains can get our eyes to work and walking works etc but bee's can't do calculations is silly. They don't need to understand what's going on just simulate something that works.
