Remember how sun rays would come thru a window and show a lot of dust?

I live in the Central Valley of California. Due to the shape of the valley and all of the farming and other stuff humans do, dust is everywhere all the time.

When the sun comes streaming through the three windows that do not have an awning, I get to see rays and the dust motes floating around. just saw it yesterday late afternoon, and in a couple/three more hours I will see it again.

When people undergo training for investigative police work, one of the earliest exercises they go through revolves around eyewitness accounts. You are shown a scene, a picture, or given a description, and then asked to recount it in as much detail as possible. The point of the exercise is to show how unreliable our own memories are on a moment to moment basis, let alone over long time scales.

Invariably, details come out completely wrong, and very often, things are remembered that were not even there. Our brain not only misrepresents our memories as we go through life, it makes up information to fill the gaps.

Everyone remembers golden dust at windows that was never there, thus causing it to be modeled beautifully and completely unnecessarily into a classic video game?
A vast collective hallucinosis, as it were?
