'cogito-ergo-sum style knowledge we all enjoy' I think you have to speak for yourself. I do not find cogito-ego-sum convincing and I hope I am not alone. That is a very slippery slope to dualism. I am and therefore I think is more in keeping that how brains evolved. Animals move, therefore they have to know where they are going, therefore they must model reality, therefore they become conscious.
You think that subjective experience doesn't exist, thus there's no need to explain why consciousness would ever feel like anything? That's a respectable position, but it definitely needed to be clarified.
