Fair points. (I imagine some of this is about word limits). It's clearly a prototheory (not yet a theory). Whether it can ever be a testable theory is debated.
Given how high the stakes are here (the ethics of organoids, AI and coma patients (also eating salad 😉)), how wrong some journalists are getting this, and the fact that the path to this becoming a testable theory is very unclear, I endorse the term pseudoscience in this case.
That said, understanding consciousness is also one of the most challenging problems humanity has ever faced and I support the prototheory's development.
(BTW: I understand that the team will be posting responses to pushback (including this point) in a few days).
