No, it’s not a typo. I’m pointing out that even if they have no eyes, they’d still have sensory input and within that input you’d still find “visual descriptions”. You can still describe something as square or round or “emanates this wavelength of light” without eyes. Eyes are not a prerequisite for describing things.

You can still describe something as square or round or “emanates this wavelength of light” or “this object is 5m away from me” without eyes. Eyes are not a prerequisite for describing things and if they are space fairing, they’ve figured out something. You wouldn’t be able to build a ship without some system in place. So sure, they may be vastly different, but some common things have to exist. And math will always be one of those. Change your number system and ratios still stay the same.
