Woman here. Had many fantasies of saving lives. Both in daydreams and nightmares. Sometimes with superpowers, other times with nothing working in my favor.

I wouldn't be suprised if it was a feature of tribalism. Imagining scenario's in an attempt to prepare for them.

Tribalism or just humanity: we are almost set apart by our ability to imagine scenarios and "pre-game" our response. If this was a mechanism to cope with fear of new things or wariness around a risky situation, it'd totally make sense.

Successfully! I remember reading about research into how folks survive scenarios, and having thought about it ahead of time was one of the big ones.
