Does this reasoning make sense - it's thick/bright/opaque enough to hide most of the stars behind it from our point of view. Someone on a planet in the middle, who would be looking through half the thickness of dust, would be able to see the stars beyond the nebula twice as well as us.

So my guess is, it would be like having really bad light pollution =)
