In other words, you are beginning to understand intuitively during your LD that your dream body is irrelevant.
Now, if you let this understanding develop, in time you won't have a dream body during higher-level LD's at all, nor will you care or notice*. This is most helpful in several ways, one of which is that navigation becomes much easier: If you are operating from a baseline of knowing that your dream body is in no way a physical object, then knowing that those walls and doors are just mental constructs will not be far behind. So you won't bother trying to imagine neutrinos, punch doors, or even to think about something hurting; you will just pass through those walls and doors as if they aren't even there -- because you know they aren't. This, I think, is a very powerful tool for navigating your dream world; and creating a dream world, for that matter.
* Unless you want to notice, of course! If you ever need your body, or some part of it, during the course of your dream, it will likely appear for you upon request... you might get a little shock at first when you watch a pair of hands appear in front of you, but you'll get used to it!
