There's actually a fairly good sci fi writer who has no images. He just writes based on what he thinks sounds good. He doesn't picture his story at all.
That could be an artistic preference. My understanding is the two skills I mentioned above were taken as a given just 100 short years ago. Add in the ," Zero Tolerance Policy" in schools. Let's not forget a side of covid kids who don't have basic social skills because of masking. ( remember those kids terrified of people without masks?)

Seems rather designed. The killbox comes to mind.
