Don't take this the wrong way, but its only ever hard to tell reality apart from dreams when you are asleep. Its quite obvious when you aren't, even just the sensation of being conscious in reality is easy to tell apart from the lesser clarity and 'different' physical feeling the dream world has. The only reason people RC in the day is so they do it on accident in the dream. :/

No, that is the only reason people RC if they aren't performing RCs correctly. When you RC during the day, your suppose to be training yourself to question your reality. That way, you will do the same in your dreams. If you truly question your reality regularly in waking life (while performing RCs), you will become more aware of things in the dream state. Certain circumstances will lead to your questioning of reality in the dream state.

If one is performing RCs to try and get lucky and perform one in a dream, they are going about it the wrong way. Quality RCs help build awareness.
