I'm happy to see they referenced the classic essay by Thomas Nagel, "What is it Like to Be a Bat?"

That was required reading when I was studying Philosophy back in the day. I guess that's what made so much science fiction interesting: knowing how others experience things is a great antidote against solipsism.
