yeah, it's never really flying for me, but lots of navigating across fantasy landscapes in odd modes of transport like chairlifts and ski runs. But the perception of those landscapes is very much including bird's eye view, only that it's never "me" at the elevated camera position. Whatever story happens, it simply isn't told exclusively through "subjective camera". (does dreaming even involve first person view? I think it's more like a faux awareness of being somewhere than faux vision) It's not flying to me, more like being able to "feel a map projection". But that's certainly close to flying, I guess it's the same category of dream from a "why" standpoint. And once the "i can fly!" part of off the table, I think the "why" is rather obvious: get used to thinking in larger topologies than what we encounter in sedentary day to day life.
