Spoiler: "The whole thing happened entirely inside Cobb's limbo" is the same as "the whole thing was just a dream": it's a glib interpretation that implies laziness and/or unreasonable cynicism. Saying it suggests that the whole two and a half hours is nothing but a huge, hollow confidence trick; an elaborate and ultimately pointless bit of flimflammery. NO! All those people did NOT go to all that trouble for the sake of tricking you! Who do you think you are?!
Inception is a house of cards with dependable structural integrity that will never fall down no matter what shit it gets bombarded with.
