I personally have aphantasia, and, funny enough, I don't visualize anything when I'm coding, or reading code: I just understand the concept more or less deeply, but always without any images: It's just the "concept"

That's funny: do you know why there is petroleum at all? When plants evolved to have line, they where able to become trees. Sadly, no bacteria was able to decompose linine. It took a looooot of time (I don't remember how much, but
