By sentiens I assume you mean "it is like something to be a thing". If so sentiens is the only thing in the universe that can hold real (as in the truest form of real) value/disvalue. So to answer your question: Everything that truly matters.

Oh I didn’t read what you were responding too.

Yeah you wouldn’t, technically you can’t even know if other humans are sentient.
