How come damage to a tiny part of the brain can change everything about a person, but removal of an entire half can just leave one with a few motor issues.
Short version: plasticity. Until the Jello mold sets -- as it does in stages throughout childhood -- you can do a lot of rearranging of what happens where in the brain! Which is why you can do stuff to a child's brain you would never be able to get away with in an adult's brain. And then, on the fMRI, you get entertainingly crazy results like language processing being done in the math module, or social responses lighting up the whole hemisphere instead of just one section.

Ailleann, why you gotta strikethrough? Come on, it's the closest-to-canon gay pairing HP's got!
It's so true. I was just reluctant to get all slashy in Natter. (In hindsight, I have no idea why.)
