Too bad your comment got buried so far down, I think it's a very interesting critique of the Jaynes fandom here on HN. Of course, the point that Jaynes's arguments are unconvincing because his examples could also be interpreted differently is hardly sophisticated, especially since not all of his examples from, say, the Illiad, even mention hallucinations explicitly (instead, Gods sometimes just suddenly disappear, leaving those who were following their commands confused - Jaynes argues this is exactly because the God had been a hallucination all along), and he spends some time on showing that the very concept of an internal mind-space didn't exist in early Greek civilization.
Your point on the Jaynes fandom is interesting, though. I'll make sure to keep the in mind the next time the topic comes up here.
