Sure, but that's not what Christophe was talking about. This is a case where you can avoid the consequences of your actions. If reality is, in fact, a hallucination, it doesn't change the fact that you can't change the hallucination. You can't avoid the consequences of your actions by "waking up". -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
