light switches?

we turn lights on and off lots of times everyday, so you would think we would in our dreams. and in dreams apparantly light switches dont work.
so why dont people trying to lucid dream and being aware of strange stuff like that become lucid all the time from this?

The reason is because the dreaming mind in unable to link the faulty light switch scenario with waking memory intention to do an RC due to the nature of dreaming where willful memory is impared. But it happens sometimes by accident so we become lucid after the RC. People often mix the dreaming mind and the waking mind as the same but it's not the same since the normal functioning of the brain is shut-off except for those that are required for dreaming. But with training it will increase the chance of the accident happening it did for me. I got all of my lucids because of faulty lights because of being aware of the RC that may follow.
