My guess is that we (re)perceive our perception as a meta-modality different from ordinary modalities like vision, hearing, etc, and that causes the illusion. It’s plausible that being raised in a WEIRD culture contributes to that inclination.
This seems exceedingly unlikely. Virtually every culture has a conception of “soul” which they are confused about, and ascribe supernatural non-materialist properties to.

Yes, and the eliminationist approach doesn’t explain why this is so universal and what process leads to it.
