As a sighted person with aphantasia, I find descriptions of things I’m not there for are useless and usually detract from what is happening because I’m just trying to remember a list of worthless facts in addition to trying to hold on to the reason I’m getting all the worthless stuff. But there is something to be said for the linking of the emotional self to the environment, which is what you/the article are saying I think.
Do you care if the room seats 250 or 350 people? Probably not. Would it be useful to have an understanding of the *sense* of those people? Yes. That gives you the emotional connection that informs your next move
