When all decisions/emotions/attractions/thoughts etc. originate form the brain, why do people use “heart” in such contexts?

Might have something to do with vagus nerve as well. We physically feel lot of strong emotions in our chest and stomach because of it. I know I’ve felt stuff where my “heart” is.
We tend to intellectualize emotions and don’t fully feel them, which is why it might not always be noticeable. But they are very physical.
