How NEO stopped the sentinels!
OK,
First let me begin by stating that I still believe in the MWAM theory. But, at one point I was starting to believe that theory was incorrect. Although there are a number of points, counter-points for each argument, the biggest concern of mine, was how Neo stopped the sentinels. While trying to convince myself the MWAM theory was WRONG, here's what I came up with...
Neo (as well as everyone else who was at one time plugged into the Matrix) is basically a cyborg, a human with mechanical implants (the plugs, which are still in him). It is feasible that he could have another sort of implant inside him which is a sort of transmitter (Not difficult to comprehend since wireless tech is pretty simple).
Since part of his mind is now inside "The Source" (according to ETM game) his matrix-mind (or code) is now part of the machine "collective" mind (what one sees, they all see). Therefore, the Source-Neo would be aware that his Zion-self was in danger (he could see it through the eyes of the attacking sentinel). So, Zion-Neo can now "feel" the machines through his transmitter implant now receiving signals based on his new connection with "The Source."
Therefore, the Source-Neo (based on the wireless "request" from Zion-Neo) merely activates some sort of electro charge to stop the sentinels. Since the tunnels are basically lined with mechanical equipment (pipes and conduit) it is feasible to assume that there could be equipment capable of generating that charge located throughout the tunnels.
Why did it knock Neo into unconsciousness? Perhaps the charge overloaded the connection between his brain and his source-mind. Since Bane is physically the same as Neo, a Smith mind inside Bane (Bane is a cyborg too with the same implants) connected to a Smith mind in the Matrix, he could defend himself the same way, with the same effect (unconsiousness).
So, that's the theory I came up with to explain Neo stopping the sentinels without the MWAM theory...what do you think?
