I actually feel mildly guilty for my comment. It’s not like I’ve done a proper search, it’s not something I worked on directly, and I dislike neuron count weighting from a more inside view persepctive, so it’s possible my memory is biased here. Not to mention that I don’t actually no of any philosophers (beyond Bob and other people at RP themselves) who explicitly deny neuron count weighting. Don’t update TOO much on me here!
Separate from your comment, I have seen comments like this elsewhere (albeit also mainly from Bob and other RP people), so I still think it’s interesting additional evidence that this is a thing.
It seems like some people find it borderline inconceivable that neuron counts correspond to higher experience intensity/​size/​moral weight, and some people find it inconceivable the other way. This is pretty interesting!
