There is no big revelation, as noted, I've never actually been unclear on what it is you believe, or why. I have had this conversation many, many times.
You have a philosophic objection to science which proceeds from ideological positions that consider consciousness to be irreducible. Only the livestream of subjective experience is an observation of consciousness. That's okay. You're allowed. You may even be right. The trouble is and has always been that in expressing your position you asserted, and thus require, the truth of the very thing you intended to disprove.
A stolen concept.
MA has noted that you selectively employ this objection. I've been able to get you to do the same multiple times. You're still not objecting to the voltmeter or the thermometer. You're scraping for a way to reject observations of consciousness and retain the voltmeter and the thermometer...both, in that case..stolen concepts.
