Isn't the question rather the other way round?
We experience light of a certain frequency as being 'red,' and
strawberries taste like strawberries. Surely the challenge that qualia
pose, is to account just for those elements of our actual experience
that are absent from any behavioural, (or physical) description. To
suggest that we can get by very well thank you without using qualia is
just to miss the point. (Though I don't deny that it might be very
useful to persue that line of reasoning)
