Davetheonemende> Please don’t choke on physics that you don’t understand. A reflection is just that. In our case a two-dimensional PROJECTION of a three-dimensional object.
There are no multiverses in the Matrix, and mirrors are not gateways to other dimensions.
This is the only time I’ll say this.

Yes. I took the age of sexual maturity into consideration. As I wrote, for simplicity’s sake, I simply averaged it so that if a woman had kids, she’d have all of them within a few years of each other, so it was easier to add up. Once she’d “had” the kids, I did no longer consider her when I calculated the number of kids during the NEXT 20 years.
I also ONLY let the freed minds from the previous 20 years free more minds, so that number could be somewhat higher. But I decided to let the danger of freeing minds equal out with the previous freed minds.
The original 24 humans either simply rebuild Zion as in Rebuild the same city, thinking it’s a ruin from the war between man and machine that started it all (as I wrote in my previous post), or they’re put in a new site, and slowly start building a NEW city.
WHY the previous One has chosen, through five cycles, to remain silent, HAS been a topic of debate around here, trust me. But think about it: What would happen if he left a “note”? If the machines realised, that the free humans actually knew about the previous Ones, they might simply decide to wipe out Zion earlier than usual.
Maybe the ordeal of joining with the Source deletes the memory of the One. We know the machines can wipe your mind (Cipher asks for this, Neo believes the implanted machine wasn’t real, etc).
Mike> me being Goderator, doesn’t necessarily make me right. Although… Hmmm… 😄
