Yeah, the more I think about it, what I "saw" looked really like a blackboard drawing of ball and table, including the shading on the ball and everything being from the "default isometric angle".
Weird.
But for the usual "imagine a beach" aphantasia test, I do imagine real beach with sand-colored sand, trees, people, sea, sound of waves and screeching of seagulls. Which makes me think two things - some aphantasia might be learned by teaching people abstract thinking, and that the artificialness of the example might be biasing.
