You see, this represents a TEST and a very important Rite of Passage. Dying in a Dream and staying in the dream long enough to experience coming back to life -- it brings the knowledge and certainty that in one's dreams one is an Immortal Hero.

Your friend either knows nothing about dreaming, or is a very elementary beginner.

If your friend can be so entirely wrong about something so important as Death in a Dream -- reverting to Old Housewife Gossip -- then I would think everything esle you've heard is probably just lying or storytelling about something YOU are interested in. You are getting your chain pulled by a convincing liar.
