We don’t get caught up in memories the same way which can make moving on from things emotionally easier. While things can still be traumatic, not reliving them in such detail can be less traumatic.
I wouldn’t say there’s no upside.
We still function just fine, it’s just a different experience.
The upside sounds made up. There is no reason to believe that people with this challenge have this feature rather than you yourself having this feature for reasons completely unrelated to this.
“condition” makes it sound like it’s a problem lol, it’s just a variation of thought

It doesn’t really have any downsides either so it’s neutral
How on earth can you imagine that has no downsides?
I can’t imagine it, I have aphantasia 😎
