I don't think that p-zombies are a coherent concept. Anything physically identical to something having subjective experiences will also have subjective experiences.
In the evolutionary framework, I see subjective experiences as being inevitable spandrels when the level of complexity of information processing gets to be enough to model ones own internal state.
