You are talking about the popular narrative of “left brain” thinking being more logical and “right brain” thinking being more creative. You are correct this is unsupported.

The post you are replying to is talking about the small subset of individuals who have had their corpus callosum surgically severed, which makes it much more difficult for the brain to send messages between hemispheres. These patients exhibit “split brain” behavior that is well studied by experiments and can shed light into human consciousness and rationality.
