I see 2 sides to FA's though overall I like them.
I'm very prone to them. I unconditionally do a RC whenever I get out of bed in RL because of this, and also do them if I wake up but not getting out of bed yet. Though most of the time in a FA I don't do this, which is pretty annoying.
Good things from FA's for me are that I'm a bit better at getting lucid from them than from other dreams, and also, being in my bedroom or something similar gives me a good starting point rather than being in the middle of a wierd situation. I've also noticed FA lucids can be very realistic at times.
The bad side for me with them is that I tend to be very groggy in them, if I become lucid from a false awakening, its much harder for me to think or have energy, most of the time my eye sight doesn't even work right and I have to try and solve that (usually not having the brains to do so).
Another note is that I have had many times where I have had a FA from a lucid, and while I do not become lucid in the FA, the dream story is often of me preparing for a LD or having equipment promising one, I then dream of going back to sleep and the next dream scene immediately becomes lucid because of my situation before sleeping again. Interestingly when becoming lucid again, I am unaware that the FA in between the lucids was a dream, I seem to accept it as real. So really the FA is giving me a lucid.
