You piqued my curiosity, so I looked for a paper. I found something tangential but fascinating.

"Naud and Sprekeler (2018) suggest that this could be achieved using a synaptic strategy that facilitates summation for simple action potentials arriving on the basal dendrites and depresses faster burst-like events arriving on the distal tuft"

Oh, its frequency multiplexing with a band pass filter. Same trick the analog phone system used to reduce the amount of wire needed in the network. Same problem, same solution. Convergent evolution.

I wonder if there's ways to do phreaking on neurons.
