I am fully aware breathing is autonomic.

The part of the brain that controls breathing and your pulse is different from the part of the brain that controls the other muscles in the body

Breathing, your heart beating, and all of the other things you cant control in your body can not be shut off unless you go through some sort of distress. Your body paralyzes itself so you don't act out your dreams, so you can still breathe, you just cant move your muscles by yourself

It's just a dream the mind plays tricks on you.

I don't think you're paralyzed, I think you just kind of don't thrash around. Your eyes move constantly during your dreams.

The paralysis is that your conscious brain has no control over the movement of your limbs.
