1) But even if it had been true, it wouldn't have been one specific wave, as one might imagine it. (https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-magazine-monitor-26064998)
2) IN 1982, Mr. Cullen published a chapbook to celebrate his bank’s centennial. The book contained a photograph of the bank’s first president, the elaborately bearded Oscar F. Beach, and another of himself, from childhood, which bore the caption: “Ms. Berger’s kindergarten class 1953.”
“Banking, as one might imagine, is a very interesting business,” he wrote. (https://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/25/...tes-smallest-bank-plays-an-outsize-role.html?)
Q) Does the phrase as one might imagine function the same way in (1) and (2)? I mean, why did the author add "it" after "imagine" in (1)?
