What does “not having a first person perspective” look like?
gerrymnadered definition of meaning
I find my definition of meaning (of statements) very natural. Do you want to offer a better one?
subjectivity
I think you use that word as equivalent to consciousness, not as a property that consciousness has.
I can ask and answer subjective questions of myself, like how do I feel, what can I remember, how much do I enjoy a taste.
All of these things have perfectly good physical representations. All of them can be done by a fairly simple bot. I don’t think that’s what you mean by consciousness.

Not if “perfectly good” means “known”.
It’s ok, it doesn’t. Why do people keep bringing up current knowledge?
Because we are trying to communicate now, but your semantic scheme requires knowledge that is only available in the future , if at all.
