So this is is highly speculative,
I wonder if there is a connection between how we so easily forget dreams with dementia. Could it be that our mind has a system of its own to erase dreams? And somehow in the case of dementia, it strayed away and went for the memories of realities as well?
Dopamine and other positive emotions might prevent this, and stressing out while laying down, might confuse this system. What I mean is, while we are actively contemplating in our bed, exploring in our minds, it might came across as a dream for our subconscious... (highly speculative).
And when the nexus created were wrong, then the memory would be registered at where it supposed to be a dream, or the "hard-disks" were considered RAM or being used as RAM.
You know what, like, you're using your permanent memories for spontaneity, while your real life real time reactional systems became so underused its muscles shrank...
Something like that
