I'd say intersubjective evidence is persuasive if the experience doesn't require coaching, practice, training, or foreknowledge. A person without prior experience will see a pencil appear to ben when placed in water. A novice told to meditate will not have the experience of a lifelong meditator. Why is really beside the point. The experiences are tainted by the possibility of bias and imagining.
