This might be an artifact of how we talk about them. We discuss them as things happening to subjects, but can there be just pain without a subject to experience pain? Can it be argued that in the end of the day we define the borders subject itself through the qualia?
I don't think anyone is arguing against usefulness of an heuristics concept of self. It's seems like we are predisposed to the this kind of thing which might make a fair bit of evolutionary sense.
