I suspect a lot of these cases might be people believing that "others" have super vivid, holographic 3D color models of things floating in front of their eyes when they "imagine" things.
- noname120 2y agoWhat makes you think so?
- namaria 2y agoIt's just a nagging feeling that "aphantasia" is based more on semantics or misunderstanding than a neurological reality.
- kordlessagain 2y agoI have a close friend who does have what you describe here, being able to create a manipulatable model of underground formations from a seismic map, floating above his desk, AR like. As this stuff is almost impossible to prove or disprove, what we are left with is either trusting someone when they self report OR assuming everyone uses our own way of thinking (from a self standpoint). I think the later is quite egotistical in nature, and obviously incorrect when applied to physical attributes, so I'd rather go with the former personally.
