Dreaming in color - I don't even see where you're going with this. Some people do, some don't. It changes over time. Where's the error? Are there people who think they dream in color but don't, or vice versa? How is this relevant?

Dream in colour? With, like, pictures? I think I mostly dream in concepts. With occasional pictures included for effect now and again.

My current best guess is that I only have a few damaged memory fragments and that 99% of what my brain reports as memories are guesses based from what I know of how dreams work in general.

Sounds about right. Waking memories aren't that much better. :)
