: being , and able is a privilege. Having access to systems to assist you in your disability is a privilege.

Having a privilege does not, in any way, equate to things being easy for you. It does equate to it being easier than for someone without that privilege. So, having a wheelchair if you can’t walk is a privilege but in a society where wheelchair access isn’t mandated or well planned out, it’s not necessarily an easy option either.

@DrYohanJohn None of those votes seems satisfactory - so I will have to vote for the "complicated"

However, information processing and are useful terms.

Fundamentally - is processing information that is comparable to computing? Or is the explicit result, the cognitive psychology, the outcome that is more similar to computing? (the electrochemical result we experience).

I feel like an analogy of consciousness may be appropriate. A flame - is the outcome of -chemical reactions. So is ! They're both (atom - electrons) electrochemical processes. And both give off energy.
