The “sexiness’” of the hard problem of Consciousness to me is mainly in it’s relationship with morality and meaning.
For any hypothetical I can think of, whether or not the entities involved have a subjective experience (along with the concept of a valence/preferences) dominates any other consideration. In a way it seems like “Hard Problem” aspect of Consciousness is the only thing that would give anything meaning, thus pointing to the hard problem as one of the most pressing questions for anyone trying to understand what’s going on.
