Interesting, as I would divide my dreams up 25/25/25/25 between mundane daily experiences, the same or very similar dream, totally new situations and finally the surreal ones where you magically end up in random places and random situations. Always figured it's a blend of taking past and recent experiences and re-ordering them, with a hint of hypothetical scenarios for the future. The "flicker" sounds like a good A/B test for the hypothetical while the replays are good for memorisation. I can often tell when I'm dreaming when it comes to the more hypothetical ones due to dodgy physics or whatever (try nipping my face and can't feel anything) so I'm probably buggering that process up a bit. Maybe an INTJ trait. I remember doing that as a kid and being able to fly, but nowadays often I can't get beyond 10 metres above ground. Been rate limited.
