Do you disagree, then, that "they may not have any strong opinion on whether the spirits are made of nonmental spirit foam"?

They may not describe themselves as having a strong opinion about that, or even thinking of it in those terms, but I don't see how they could come to the conclusion that spirits exist without the underlying assumption that consciousness is ontologically basic.
