They didn't ban subliminal messages because they \"worked too well.\" They didn't work at all. The FCC banned them in 1974 basically because they were paranoid.
There have been numerous - hundreds - of studies proving the failure of subliminal messages. James Vicary claimed to have increased the sales of coke in the movie theater by 18%, and the sales of popcorn by 58%, yet no one has ever reproduced those results.
And another thing: applying S.M. to lucid dreaming is a bad idea in the first place. Why? The idea of lucid dreaming is to let you conscious mind override your subconscious mind. S.M. would affect your subconscious, and only your subconscious. There really wouldn't be much point.
You're wrong.
