the power this would award me is incomprehensible, but i feel like i’d spend the rest of my conscious hours trying to figure out all the damage i caused and apologizing profusely for it
a lot of subjective experience is instantly forgotten, in fact the vast majority of it

But what are you identifying as subjective experience? If something happened and this person doesn't remember it, it's not like you can say hey look I have evidence that there was qualia in your head earlier.

I am pretty convinced that there is an ongoing consciousness most of the time I’m awake, whether I have memories of it or not - does that seem wrong to you?

(or, at best, heaped into a generic memory of “things like this subjective experience” - you can remember brushing your teeth, but probably few actual times you brushed your teeth in detail)

But what if you only experience memories, ie it must be captured to be processed. Most memories are simply discarded, rather than never formed.
