Dreams often do not mean anything and when they do, we usually cannot immediately discern the meaning.

Agreed, but they sure do provide lots of fodder for those folks who like to research "soft" science eh? That rabbit hole can be as deep as you want it to be...

... i think this programmatic, time-sequential view of the human mind, consciousness, past, present, future, reality and dreams in particular is very limited and short-sighted, probably restricted by own own monkey-brain limits on imagination

... imagine the human mind as massively-parallel, temporal-shifting antennae tuned in to vast pools of quantum electrodynamic potential fields, consciousness as a manifestation of a Universal Collective Consciousness shared by billions of individuals and dreams as an individual's vision/perception of a possible future contributing towards a shared subjective view of possible future realities

... "we all have hopes and dreams" type of conceptualisation about dreams is close to the gut feel about what dreams are, maybe closer to what dreams truly are, not just a classification and defrag alogrithm but that and more, categorise the present and the past AND project desirable individualised futures into the shared Universal Collective Consciousness to see how it is manifests in our shared future reality ... AND visions returned from the Universal Collective Consciousness about how the shared future reality is manifesting individually given the billions of individual consciousness dreaming inputs

... like a live decentralised network of individualised minds each contributing their hopes, dreams into the universal network consciousness pool of possible future realities and the optimal reality is manifest by the collective outcomes for the multitudes .... reap what you sow, be careful what you wish for

... maybe if we all dream about a beautiful future and share the vision it will become manifest ... or vice-versa

I rest my case...
