But if they fed the humans to the cows, it would also kill two birds with one stone.
Of course, the catch is that there's something about the style of "life" within the Matrix which is required for its operation. Agent Smith speaks of the first Matrix being a failure, since the humans didn't like the perfect world they'd made. This implies that not just any living being will do, and so perhaps cows simply wouldn't work.
The first matrix failed because humans required choice as the Architect and the Oracle alluded to (she was the “mother” of this choice-involved Matrix). However, it is never made clear why the machines couldn't have killed the humans, harvested the bio-energy from cows and skipped the whole fake universe thing (both the Matrix and the “real world containing Zion” were matrices by the way. The “real world” was created for the 1% that rejected the Matrix. This is why Smith was able to “possess” Bane and why Neo was still “magic” in the “real world”).

Well, so much for me avoiding spoilers for the 2nd and 3rd movies... 
I should never have opened this thread. My bad. |
