Federico et al. present an interesting framework for technological cognition distinguishing mechanical and digital technologies within a distributed brain network. We build on this contribution by emphasizing two key issues for neuropsychology. First, greater weight on semantic processing may not suffice for efficient digital tool use: selection mechanisms are crucial for translating abstract goals into concrete action sequences. Second, digital technologies must be considered in terms of what they offer (functional opportunities) and what they demand (user skills). These distinctions clarify pathways for assessment, rehabilitation, and inclusion, and highlight open questions essential to advancing digital neuropsychology.
