Definitely. If there were manuals on other people's brains I would read them too

Mine'd probably have post-it notes all over it and sections crossed out with comments like "f***ing useless book" and "no no no, it doesn't do that" and "no, use the red-coded neuron, not the green one. The green one causes unpleasant things"

Ditto that!

I'd probably spend so much time reading the manuals, I'd not have much left for the actual interaction.

Depends on how big it is. I don't want to be intimidated by it, but I'd like to get maximum performance out of the brain.

Maybe . . . It depends on whether or not it would describe my death. I don't want to know how or when I'm going to die. If it were truly a complete, manual, I think it would have to at least mention the brain's life expectancy.
