Taking a page out of Nagel's What Is It Like To Be A Bat, the inseparable subjective nature of consciousness/qualia/what-is-it-like-ness makes it antithetical to the perspectiveless objective(ness) of science. In other words, the whole point of science is to develop a perspectiveless espistomological framework and the perspective-ness of conscious experience is outside the bounds of science. Consciousness *is" objectiveless.
