But if you weren't one of them, would you be able to tell that they had emotions (and not just simulations of emotions) by looking at them from the outside?

If I wasn’t one of them I wouldn’t care. It’s like caring about trees having branches. They just do. The trees probably care a great deal about their branches though, like I care a great deal about my emotions.
