Some concepts refer to entities outside the mind, some to mental entities, and some don’t refer. So the observation that something is “conceptual” tells us nothing, basically.
The phrase “conceptual entities” seems empty to me. Did you mean something like “only
and purely conceptual entities”.

And all of them are physically represented in the brain. And even the ones that refer to outside reality, are an arbitrary division. In other words, physics doesn’t have layers—layers exist only in brains.
That’s why, when you make claims about qualia or consciousness as if they were something that existed outside of some particular observing brain (not the one within which they are deemed to exist), you’re making a mistake about physics, as well as philosophy, and committing the mind projection fallacy at the same time.

I don’t understand that. Please give an example.
