I don't think that there is any possibility that any evolutionary advantage could be derived of the fact of feeling itself. Any benefit conferred by feeling would be redundant as long as you have the functionality that you are attributing to that feeling. Only behavior can count for evolution, not feeling. A brain that behaves in a way that makes the body survive and reproduce needs no help from some magical interior narrative experience created out of thin air.
