So you are right in that we exist in all dimensions...but our perception of it is limited to 3 of its dimensions.

Just have to voice out that I fundamentally disagree with this. Generally speaking, single cells like bacteria, unicellular algae or even sperm have length, width and height and they exist in and relate to a world which clearly has 3 dimensions. If you were smaller, it wouldn't reduce the amount of dimensions in the world, even if you were blind.
Why would the world seem 2d to a plankton or gut bacteria?
