I met a synesthete out here who perceives sound as light and it actually does cause her problems, since the louder the noise is the brighter the light is. For example, she couldn't go to the fourth of july party because the fireworks would have given her sensory overload. D:
But yeah, I'd still call synesthesia a different way of being, rather than a true disability.
