Don't forget the entire body is conscious and if this is true there is a connective force of billions of like individual consciousnesses that is not the brain. Every cell in each person (atom) is alive and conscious, and we each are a collective of billions of tiny consciousnesses structures ultimately merging into one, there really is no primary. What if this is what they came up with.
These days I also wonder if consciousness is a nonlocal event but then this raises the question you ask which I can't see. Wonderful question.
Also forget to mention, early in development the size of the brain is said to be larger, I forget the percentage. The brain becomes smaller and is thought to be assimilated into the body which makes sense, so you do have the innate properties becoming like a blue print, a transportation of consciousness, giving consciousness to the body I imagine.
