no, the big piece to take from Gage is localization of function
modern neuroscience has since made the findings from the mid 1800s sort of irrelevant

Well I think it's mainly that trying to break the brain down into a couple large pieces is an excercise that's doomed to failure. The brain is heavily interconnected and while things are somewhat localized it's a gross over simplification to say that any of the lobes are singly responsible for certain behaviors.
