Actually being trapped in a non-functioning mind or body without knowing the problem would change many minds. Don't read too much into an offhand high school thought experiment.

It's still a thought experiment. People in general lack imagination outside of the range of their experience. Imagination is a skill that has to be practiced or lost.
