Our brains are designed to piece together incomplete information in the background, fill in gaps and use heuristics. We fill in lines on geometric shapes, add letters to words, even remember things that weren't there to make it consistent with what we expect to see. Uncanny valley, dramatic tension in art due to inconsistent visual clues, etc.
