That's quite clear, given how rich and varied all those dream elements are. I really love the idea of the laboratory as a place of community and an environment to develop knowledge i ways that are are balanced, without hierarchy, etc.

Are all of these elements present within the series? What has changed most? What has stayed most consistent?

I find your note on the dark magician interesting as it was a similar energy when I encountered one in my dream/hypnogogic state. There was an immediate sense of collision and being pinned against one another, a kind of struggle, and yet respect. It was like we couldn't both exist in the same psychic space due to how we matched up. And yet, that tension also drew something powerful out of us both.
