What does that have to do with the quantum mind hypothesis?

That allows you to replace "I am my brain" with "I am a complex quantum state which is instantiated by my brain; and my inner experience maps directly to this quantum state." Other brains have evolved to maintain quantum states in the same way, hence they also have subjective experience.

That doesn't make a difference wrt your argument.
