There's an obvious explanation for the differences in perspective, which is covered by the title of this paper: https://philarchive.org/archive/KEACDD https:/

  That's wonderful. I'm going to read it full later but I've been looking for some writing on this topic.

    The paper isn't quite as directly about what the title says as I might have liked, but since it's a mostly serious academic paper it probably can't be. It does contain some gems though, like: > In spite of his claim to have "long claimed" that the conceivability of zombies is only apparent, one suspects that it is non-zombic humans that Dennett finds if not inconceivable, then unendurable. [...] Zombies are perfect for Dennett! If the human world turned out to be populated only by them, his troubles would be over. Non-zombic humans, by contrast, are a nightmare for Dennett. It's also a serious but short look at the topic, which I found useful.
