Are you OK with this dogmatic flavor?

What if someone comes to me with a picture of what he was looking at,
and calls that a picture of his visual room.  He then points to that
picture.

I think your "cannot" is too strong, plus LW mentions it's one of the
challenges to not get an "it's impossible" mindset, as we really mean
"nonsensical" i.e. what if we could?  If you draw a blank, then it's
not that you can't.
