But this is kind of strange, because how does the dream world, designed and built by the architect, exist if the architect's own mind isn't present in the shared dreaming then? Does it exist in the minds of the other team members instead? What if different team members remember different details differently, whose would take precedence? Or does a specific team member then have to remember and take on the architect's world?
(Come to think, the team is shown meeting in the dream world prior to the mission, presumably to familiarise themselves with it. But if Cobb is so afraid of knowing the layout, shouldn't he have avoided exactly this?)
Probably I'm just overthinking this, that's the problem with the movie trying to set down specific "rules" but not explaining the full structure (if it exists). XD;
