“Simon Browne had become a p-zombie.”
Wrong. P-zombies don’t claim to be p-zombies; they claim to have experiences, not deny them.
It looks to me as though Simon Browne lost the will to be, and thus didn’t bother initiating mental processes that require effort at some level.
Not a perfect Chalmerian p-zombie—Browne made it very clear that he noticed and cared deeply about his loss of consciousness, and didn’t go around claiming he was still fully aware or any nonsense like that—but a p-zombie nonetheless.
