Seems appropriate―it falsifies your claim that consciousness requires life. That is not something we know and IIT rejects it:
"A corollary of IIT that violates common intuitions is that even circuits as simple as a ‘photodiode’ made up of a sensor and a memory element can have a modicum of experience" (Tononi, 2015, p. 11).
