No dream or hallucination is ever that logical or detailed, and he being something of an intellectual would know that. He would have accepted the reality of his situation by the time he first reached Mithil Stonedown.
lol, to be fair, the idea of being transported to some crazy new world is even more ridiculous than an unusually detailed, lucid dream, particularly when he's just been hit by a car and could've suffered some sort of brain damage
