Fascinating case Yvain, thank you for writing this up.

So, what does Simon Browne add to the p-zombie debate?

Perhaps this case provides additional evidence that against the existence of (true) p-zombies. If a physical alteration to our brain can remove our experience of qualia, then this suggests again that qualia are just a by-product of a particular mental circuit.
