I think a whole lot of what we're talking about when we discuss human consciousness and our experience of it is in B, as I said.  

In what way is attending to the details of your self image and then improving your physical body with respect to that attention not an example of an ability A?  Help me out here?  It has an upline, and a downline.  Misery, maybe it doesn't have a downline.  Being able to attend to attention is useful for getting laid, but being sad in the first person about being ugly may not be (I'm zeroing out any suggestion that it's a pain avoidance issue).

Can you give some reasons for concluding that it is in A rather than B aside from "it seems that way" or "it feels like it" or "it's obvious?"
