Pretty sure most people would pick hallucinations over blindness. Easier to correct for.
Wrong input > no input? I'm not so sure.
Depends on if you're hallucinating everything or your vision has at least some bearing in the real world. I mean, I'd rather see spiders crawling on everything than be blind, since I could still see what they were crawling on.
Some things (for instance, eating) would definitely be more enjoyable while blind rather than while hallucinating spiders.
Not 100% sure they would be for me: I'm not arachnophobic at all. (I would be willing to eat a spider for five dollars, if I was sure this couldn't cause be to get sick.)
If the wrongness is so blatant that it's easy to tell which parts of the input are likely wrong and disregard them...
A fair point. But then you're no better off than with not having that part of the input at all.
