I'll put it this way:
I have no problem imagining a physical system in my head and running a simulation of it, but it is as if instead of receiving the output of the simulation as images on a screen I am receiving it in the form of instantaneous knowledge of the state of the system.
It feels very similar to modelling program state in my head while debugging or whatever.
