    While we’re sleeping different parts of our brain is essentially idle and unresponsive. During the dream phase (REM sleep) there’s still multiple parts that are unresponsive even as the dreaming part is active. And everything we do that’s almost fully handled by a certain part of our brain won’t work in dreams when that part is idling.

    The things that works but acts weird in our dreams is partially controlled by an idling part of our brain, but our dreaming part of the brain has a separate redundant model of that thing, but it isn’t complete (see: complex movement, etc)
