I also have found it helpful to act as-if they profoundly reflect one another in ways that illuminate each.

I think you go to far in claiming that 1st and 3rd person realities have nothing to do with one another. Since the idea of objective truth arises in human consciousness and nowhere else, they must be related.

I intentionally go too far, in the hopes of breaking through the solipsistic daze of neo-advaita.

Explain how you went to far. Are you sure you did?

But I do think it’s a helpful perspective to act as-if they have nothing to do with one another.

Not surprising. Our grip on concepts - nonduality, physicalism, theism, atheism - is tenacious; our very lives seem to depend on it. So, what I would add to your suggested experiment for "enlightened nondual masters" is this: Try this experiment. But I bet you won't.
