GR translation: more steeply than the waking will ever need

[Markekohut]

Isn 't a possible reading here that Slothrop, a bit naturally obsessed with patterned bombing and his own self, now perhaps suspects the presence off order in the formerly disorderly but very ordinary debris of waking. ....

I have thought the, again, almost sublime phrase " debris of waking" presents P's wholeness of the dreamworld as what consciousness by being awake does not do. That gives us debris.
