Correct, he argues that the formulation is incoherent. That is, certain parts of our physical makeup give rise to experience, and that we cannot entertain a coherent world containing minds that lacks subjective, conscious experience while retaining the other functional correlates of consciousness. This is exactly what I meant by 'delusion'... that, according to Dennett, there are no "qualia", nothing above and beyond the ordinary physicalist/reductionist (and scientific) account of experience. It's surprising from a personal view because experience seems so essential and real.
