The point regarding seeing the world from anothers view reminds me of ‘Story of your life’ by Ted Chiang, a brilliant short story that also has a movie based on it (Arrival) which is also my favourite movie despite the, imo, botched ending.
Spoiler alert:
As the lead character learns the aliens language and can now interpret time and generally the world they do, you get to a different kind of consciousness.
As I type this out I relaize its actually kind of off topic after all lol.
