Is it just a case of having less sensory input compared to when you’re awake? Your brain can’t distinguish between things that happen in your dreams and things when you’re awake.
Biut look at your body when you’re asleep. It lies there like a bag of bones.
So the only difference may be the input of touch that says you’re lying on a mattress. But before the realisation… in your dreams, to your brain, both are equally real.
