I personally think it is, but that doesn't mean to say that this "illusion" isn't valuable. Probably more valuable than the molecules that create it even.
I never feel qualified to make the "and nothing more" judgement. Do you think the nothing more part is especially important to your comment? Could one portion of the mind, the conscious part, somehow reason its way to such a conclusion? Maybe my model unit is defective. Gotta admit I don't know. Whatever it may be consciousness is doing and regardless of the means, I'll take it!
