Quote:A similar phenomenon was also discovered in humans. Subjects who had suffered damage to their visual cortices due to accidents or strokes reported partial or total blindness. Despite this, when prompted they could "guess" the presence and details of objects with above-average accuracy and, much like animal subjects, could catch objects tossed at them. The subjects never developed any kind of confidence in their abilities. Even when told of their successes, they would not begin to spontaneously make "guesses" about objects, but instead still required prompting. Furthermore, blindsight subjects rarely express the amazement about their abilities that sighted people would expect them to express.[18]

I mean, Boru is not wrong here. From what you posted, it seems like they are unable to have subjective experiences involving vision, but they could still have subjective experiences in other ways. For example, they could still hear, feel pain, etc.

But as for your point, yeah I agree it lends support to what you've been saying.
