> Cool, so slavery where slaves do not see the slavers (let us call it “proper segregation”) is OK?

Sorry, you cannot erase the desire for autonomy even with "proper segregation".

> If sentience is not required for a “right” to learn, then I have nothing else to say to you. There is nothing there that is even learning. Learning is a concept that presumes an entity with volition, aspiration, consciousness.

Learning does not presume any such thing, and I also don't think you understand the meaning of sentience.
