Hmm, I almost see why it might be an issue. Although I guess that you could see the hypothesis as predicting what someone reports their subjective experience to be. Or perhaps that makes behavioural assumptions about consciousness?

I suppose if the sitter confirms that they and I stayed inside the cell, and that nothing else came in or out for the duration, that should address that issue? There could be cameras and microphones set up to record the lack of weird trippy phenomena. And I could record my own perceptions in the moment, either by writing it down or speaking into a dictaphone.
