We have absolutely no reason to believe that behavior correlates with consciousness.
The strong version of this can’t be true. You claiming that you’re conscious is part of your behaviour. Hopefully, it’s approximately true that you would claim that you’re conscious iff you believe that you’re conscious. If behaviour doesn’t at all correlate with consciousness, it follows that your belief in consciousness doesn’t at all correlate with you being conscious. Which is a reductio, because the whole point with having beliefs is to correlate them with the truth.

Right, right. So there is a correlation.
I’ll just say that there is no reason to believe that this correlation is very strong.
