Rather than argue with you, I'll agree with you.
As I am a writer, I not only think in language, but I act in language.
I would add a link to a conversation with neuroscientist Anil Seth about the nature of consciousness, and a quote from that, which posits maybe this isn't an either/or situation. There is much diversity in what constitutes "thought", even in humans.
"You know, some people might see colors differently. Other people might have more vivid mental imagery. We might experience the flow of time to be different from one person to another. Our expectations, our tendency to see faces in clouds, let’s say, that might differ from one person to another too. And very little is known about this hidden landscape of inner diversity."
