I've heard that the issue for some cats isn't that they can see the bottom, but that their whiskers hit the side of the bowl and that's uncomfortable.

Yeah you're supposed to put their food on plates, that's also why they often won't drink from water bowls, hence the market for little fountains for them to drink from.

Cats would literally rather die than rub their whiskers against something. I can almost relate.
