Otherwise, animal fat consumption (especially processed meats)
contributes to Alzheimers, lower IQ, ADHD, brain cancer risk, etc.

I doubt it's the saturated fat per se. There are more dangerous
chemicals in processed/burned meat. BTW have you seen my previous
thread about Kwasniewski who cures many degenerative diseases with
high animal fat+meat and low carb diet?

"Humans need relatively little protein, because our large brains need
lots of sugars ; we daily need 125-150 gram of pure glucose for the
brain only."

The human brain can run entirely on ketone bodies derived from fat
metabolism. Not as efficient as glucose but enough to sustain life
while e.g. killing cancerous cells.
