humans are not perfect so they cant be in a perfect world. if WE where perfect than this world would be too, you see.... now math is what a program is SO the architect rewrote the matrix so that 1+1=3 its not correct therefor not perfect. but some things need to be correct os some times 1+1 IS 2 and thats what the anamolys are spawned from the "remander of a mathmatial harmony" as the architect put it.
The first Matrix was, at least according to the MACHINES – perfect. A work of art. And also a monumental failure. It may still be around somewhere, but Zion and the real world are as we see them, namely real, at least to the best of my analytical abilities.
We don’t define our lives through suffering and misery. But we have a need to chose for ourselves. Shove me into the perfect world against my will, and I’ll be miserable. I didn’t chose that myself. We can only learn through our choices, be they good or bad choices, and the consequences of our choices.
That’s why it doesn’t help if someone says “don’t DO that, you’ll regret it.” I may just go ahead and do it anyways, for various reasons, and will maybe have to learn the hard way. We are an evolving species, and evolutions is, in part, based on the choices we make, and the consequences.
Humans are neither good nor bad. We just do what we can, to fulfil our basic needs for food, shelter, social interactions, procreation and getting to know ourselves.
A perfect machine world would, be definition be mathematical perfection. We don’t work that way, and that’s why we evolve. A machine can never go beyond it’s programming parameters, it can’t answer or choose beyond its program. We’re not machines, we’re not programmed to do THIS or THAT, so we can change. Sifer is right. There was no anomaly in Matrix 1.0. The anomaly is basically he consequence of the incompatibility of machine limitations and human nature.
