That’s why I asked! I wanted to know if that lack affects one’s interpretation of their own consciousness hence our different thoughts on the matter.

I recall reading where some philosophers were skeptical that people actually had mental images when visualizing. But an experiment was performed asking people to rotate mental images in their head versus calculate the rotation, and there was a measurable difference between the two activities. The person writing the article suspected that the skeptical philosophers were bad at visualization and assumed everyone else was unable to rotate images in their mind. Which is a logical fallacy.
