This whole discussion is fucked, everyone is using the word "see" differently because our language is not built to talk about mental abstractions.

You know how schizophrenia can make you see things and people? Can you experience the visual effects schizophrenia at will? If you said you are a "1", is that what you mean by "1", or is it, in some way, different than that?

If it is different than that, at all, other people who have the same perception as you are imagining that you can trigger literal hallucinations.
