I meant for my suggestion to denotationally express the same thing as what you said. But the connotations of "I can't even begin to imagine..." are different from the connotations of "...sounds incoherent."

In contexts more familiar to you, "...sounds incoherent" may express more disapproval; but in the colloquial English I'm familiar with, it's the more neutral phrase.
