Hi!
In the glossary
https://mne.tools/stable/documentation/glossary.html#term-data-channels
and
https://mne.tools/stable/documentation/glossary.html#term-non-data-channels

some channels are defined as non-data, e.g. eyegaze and pupil. but in the actual code, they are indeed data-channels:

e.g.

eyetrack=True,

I don't understand the documentation of MNE, in the glossary.rst there is some fancy action that links somewhere else that I couldnt find.

Anyway, with my eye-tracking combined EEG data, ICA.fit(data,picks='data') fails because it includes eyegaze and pupil, but it is my understanding it shouldnt.

Who is right, docs or code (I think docs but 🤷)
Cheers, Bene
