If the SERP is to be trusted, this page is the only one on the internet that uses this word. I assume it has something to do with "eugeroic" (wakefulness-promoting drugs).
Anyway I find most discussions about consciousness to be rather boring since everyone has their own wishy-washy definition of it. Stuff that’s philosophically interesting to one person will be trivial to others.
And no it's not an empty philosophical discussion, it litterally means higher cognitive functions have more or less the same locations between a human and a rodent which is a strong signal for us being not that different. If you wanna see an interesting discussion on consciousness with a concrete no-bullshit example, see the end of my comment here: (where btw I use another unique on HN word) https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastMonth&page=0&prefix=fa...
You should probably focus more on getting your point across clearly and succinctly than creating new words which will cause the vast majority of people to either try to derive from context, with mixed success, or just ignore your comment completely.
Is that your opinion or the conclusion of a study I’m unaware of?

Which is an argument to use more accessible language.
