Actually Jack, that's a great way to put it. Your vehicle no longer has a "brain" but something more like a controlling committee or board of directors, if you will. All the modules interact with each other and share data on common nodes. In fact, late model vehicle can have as many as 25 active communications nodes in the vehicle. This makes things interesting when programming or doing diagnostics.
Take care.

Bring back  Windows™ XP and 7.
 Windows™ Vista and  Windows™ 8 is a pain in my a$$!
 Windows™ 10 is only slightly less annoying!
 Windows™ 11 is garbage!
Much to my surprise, I'm actually quite enjoying Linux!
