I haven't read any Chalmers so I can't comment on his writing style. I have seen him in several videos on discussion panels and on podcasts. One thing I appreciate is he often states his premises, or what modern philosophers seem to call "commitments". I wouldn't go so far as to say he uses air-tight logic to reason from these premises/commitments to conclusions - but at the least his reasoning doesn't seem to stray too far from those commitments. I think it would be fair to argue that not all of his commitments are backed by physical evidence (and perhaps some of them could be argued to go against some physical evidence). And so you are free to reject his commitments and therefore reject his conclusions. In fact, I think the value of philosophers like Chalmers is less in their specific commitments and conclusions and more in their framing of questions. It can be useful to list out his commitments and find out where you stand on each of them, and then to do your own reasoning using logic to see what conclusions your own set of commitments forces you into.
