A plausible abstract description, but what are the specific properties of value function that create the feeling? We need that mechanistic understanding to avoid creating feelings when we don't want a sentient system. More than likely this will make the system less effective at certain tasks as well, but the ethics around this are unclear and can only be discussed once that mechanistic understanding becomes clear.
