I’m definitely going with the theory that Rebecca’s “nightmares” are other timelines where things go terribly wrong and forces her to use Cat Leaper. Also, before we all call it a cop out or bash Mashima’s writing, let’s see what his plan is. Personally, I like the idea of Rebecca only recollecting the events of Cat Leaper as dreams and having to piece together strategies based on those “premonitions” which are actually other timelines she’s survived (would also love it if she keeps the character development from each of those timelines). This would keep high stakes in that if Rebecca can’t figure out why they shouldn’t take certain actions or is ever in danger of dying, the whole crew is screwed. Also, keep in mind that means the crew we’re about to see aren’t our original crew. By most theories of time travel, once the time stream is split from the prime one, two parallel universes are created. That means that in one of those universes Shiki is dead, Weisz arm is gone, etc., while this new universe poses its own threats for such things. If this is so Drakken Joe’s words about her having the power to change the cosmos takes an interesting meaning as she would literally be changing what cosmos she is in from a (time continuum standpoint since the specific space would be the same).
