Sleepwalking is a state of mind, not a state of being. Your brain is functional, but not as if you were conscious. Just like if someone has some other imparement, that causes them to act differently, and usually not have memory of the event. It’s not because they weren’t a functional human being, it’s just because their brain wasn’t acting the way it was expected to. Those memories don’t even necessarily exist depending on the cause of it, their body/brain are in automatic mode.
