Thanks ... great summary. I read Bicameral a few years back. I remain unconvinced by the idea. Though based on personal experience, I can't rule it out yet.

Regarding 'theory ', I think Christine is right; scientifically, it is more of a hypothesis, idea or even a speculation. But merely unfalsifiable is a step too far. Difficult to falsify, or we can't see a way to falsify, perhaps.

I wish we’d stop referring to these kinds of ideas as “theories” because they are not; at the very most they are merely unfalsifiable hypotheses.
