I should also clarify that the paper doesn't argue against HOT per se (as you indicated) but just certain forms of it.

What is interesting is that the way in which HO theorists respond to the most damaging objection to HOT most likely commits them to the view the PFC generates all of the content of consciousness, this being the reason for the paper.

An embarrassment of richnesses: the PFC isn’t the content NCC Abstract. Recent years have seen the rise of several theories saying that the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is a neural correlate of visual consciousness (NCC).

Probably the most comprehensive list of those who subscribe to or take seriously the view is found here: academic.oup.com/nc/article/2...

There are substantial number of researchers that this "upper-deck" view seriously. The distinction between these types of PFC theories is discussed by Ned, Matthias, and others.
