Why Is The Smith/ Oracle So Much Stronger???

If the Oracle was a "god" then she wouldn't need Seraph to protect her. She's just an ordinary program with the ability to read thoughts/the future.

The Oracle is a powerful program, therefore when Smith copied her, he absorbed her powers. The answer is what went on inside the Oracle's kitchen. Firgure out that, and we figure out the question.

Like I said, you can appear weak and bait your enemy. Ever played chess?

The architect said "that was a dangerous game you played."

The dangerous game was helping Neo, not appearing to be weak...

Does that refer to her helping neo, or being taken over by Smith? Or both? Or neither? Help!

And if she was so powerful, then why not protect Sati? And what would be the point of baiting her enemy? Smith was already after her.

not likely, she is an intuative program initally designed to explore certin aspects of the human psychie........shes not an "administrator" and she cannot fly, if she could why would she need seraph to protect her?......it has to be something else....

Firstly, everyone is built to have a purpose. The Oracle's purpose was to delve into the aspects of the human psyche and then took on the role of The Oracle. She was NOT designed to fight in any way, therefore she doesn't. Notice how Merv doesn't fight and we know he is very powerful. The Architect doesn't fight. That answers why Seraph is needed to protect her.

Also, back to the Smith/Neo fight. Well some of you still haven't clicked I don't think so I will tell you:

Temet Nosce

combined with

"You do not truly know someone, unti, you fight them."

Make sense? 😉

As far as I can tell, the dangerous “game” the Oracle played was letting Smith take her over. This was the choice she, herself, could not understand, and which prevented Smith from fully utilising her powers.
She understood why she guided the rebels and helped Neo. For peace.

Is it not conceivable, that since Smith spreads like a virus, each Smith is connected to the other. And that ALL the Smiths present would’ve had the exact same powers as the Smith fighting Neo? Now ask yourself: Since it IS the Oracle who speaks through Smith to Neo at the very end, “Everything that has a beginning has and end”, she’s not completely taken over by Smith?
