Eliezer quoted the SEP entry as support for his position and you, in your response, cut off the part of said quote which contained the support and only responded to the remaining part which did not contain the supporting point (eg the key words: causal closure). This seems bad-faith to me even though I think you’re right that Eliezer did not account for interactionist dualism (though I disagree that it is necessarily a critical error, I don’t think one should be expected to note every possibilty no matter how low prob in the course of an argumentation.)
He didn’t quote it—he linked to it. I didn’t quote the broader section because it was ambiguous and confusing. The reason not accounting for interactionist dualism matters is because it means that he misstates the zombie argument, and his version is utterly unpersuasive.
