You mean 5s can’t even remember the visual aspect of memories?!
I’m a 2 or 3 and I can’t imagine this, that sounds horrible.
Comment on The ancient Greeks or Chinese should have already had words for this.

I’m a 4, and I’m very poor at remembering people’s faces. Same goes with memories, I realized early on that I have really shit memory especially if I rely only on visuals. These days I just try to deduce past events based on information I’m sure of. I also figured out a few years ago that I can remember my day a lot better if I’m narrating the events to myself in real time and compiling a script in my head, because otherwise I wouldn’t be able to remember much other than the events that affected my emotions more intensely.

Memories are more like the feelings and senses associated with the memory, alongside a narration of what happened. Like if I had a fight and had to recount it to police, I’d think of how I moved, where I was hit, what kinds of sounds and smells there were, etc. alongside a sort of fight announcer narrating the fight like a boxing match.
