I don't think P Zombie debates are a reat sign of rationality either, but I think the debate itself probably does nearly zero harm, if you don't count wasted time.
"If you don't count wasted time"? Okay, but likewise, if you don't count her husband getting shot, Mrs. Lincoln really enjoyed the play...
That's not likewise.
How so? A bunch of philosophers blowing valuable time on a worthless debate is a major harm, almost as if they were forcibly held in unemployment but drew the same resources from society.
