As you see, the conclusion doesnt get rid of C. The statement "C is reducible" can be compared with the statement "C is dreamable". Even if C is dreamable, there is still a C that is dreaming it. That is why C is not reducible to non-C things.
This is the definition of consciousness that im using
Maybe you should make clear what "C" stands for. At first I thought it stood for conclusion...
