Do you have any actual concrete reasons for thinking that our understanding of consciousness will change?

If not, then this is a pointless comment. We need to work with what we know.

For example, we know that the Standard Model of physics is incomplete. That doesn't mean that if someone says that it they drop a ball in a vacuum, it'll fall, we should hold out in studied agnosticism because it might go upwards or off to the side.

In other words, an isolated demand for rigor.

The existence of consciousness is self-evident, and yet we still have no idea what it is, or how to study it. We don’t have any understanding of consciousness.
