Yes exactly, that is a perfect example of what I just said: The reason nobody has a answer to the hard problem is that nobody has clearly explained exactly what the problem is or what the answer is expected to do.


Do you believe that it is plausible that your brain might be Turing emulable? Then the problem consists in justifying the physical laws from number self-reference.

You can weaken the condition of Turing emulability, and you get corresponding problems, with harder and harder math.

There in no answer in science, only questions and theories which put light, and sometimes shadow, on what we can explore.
