Your theory doesn't explain it without "adding more magic" either.
You start by assuming that certain computations must instantiate
consciousness.
You confuse UDA and AUDA. The UDA (Universal Dovetailer Argument)
assumes mechanism, which is the statement that we can survive with a
digital brain prosthesis, which is believed by anyone who does not add
magic in the brain). This assume consciousness, brains, doctors,
computers, etc.
But the UDA motivates to “redo” the thought experience “in arithmetic”,
But the very assumption that there is "thought experience" in arithmetic
is added "magic" to the computation of arithmetic.

which means limiting the statements on the semi-computable
propositions (the sigma_1 sentences) and looking at all the platonic
nuances enforced by incompleteness.
Then if you are OK with the idea that consciousness is something true,
known, undoubtable, yet non definable, and non provable, then those
nuances shows that a machine which looks inward does met notion
pertaining on itself obeying that semi-axiomatic definition, like the
machine meets a notion of matter, which obeys quantum logic, and has
to give a measure on them. (Assuming here both QM is correct, and that
we are not in a normal malevolent simulation, to be exact).
