* The scene where a woman looks on in horror as her significant other greenscreens then dives out a window because the Analyst wants to slow down Neo and Trinity. Bot or not, that man had a life. A partner. Probably a job, family, other things needed to integrate him into society. Might have even been truly sentient for all we know. And everyone left behind has to try to comprehend why he and dozens of others just jumped to their deaths on a whim.

* Part of the Anomolarium Infiltration plan involves "shutting down the macerators" and we indeed see this being done. Is it only the exit tubes on those pods that have big crushers, or are these universal on the power plants? In either case, is the function just to aid waste processing, or is it another machine way of stopping people being unplugged (with the side question of, if so, how long did it take the redpills to find out that anyone dropped out of the pods would now be shredded quite gruesomely.)

* Tifanny's husband being named "Chad" not only happens to be a case of TheDanza (his actor is Chad Stahelski, Keanu's former Matrix stunt double and now director of the John Wick series) but also works as a reference to Internet slang used by the same quarters who co-opted the Matrix's "Red Pill" and "Blue Pill" terms and imagery.

* How is it possible that Trinity was able to get the powers of The One when that mantle already belongs to Neo? Simple: Neo was The One of the ''seventh'' iteration of the Matrix, while the 4th movie takes place in the ''eighth'' iteration, which would naturally need a new One. It's just that this time around, the old One hadn't retired yet, so when Trinity unlocked her powers, Neo needed noting more than a quick "jump-start" to regain his powers, leading to the first instance of ''two'' "Ones" existing simultaneously.

* Continuing with the trans interpretation, Thomas Anderson is coding a new game called Binary. The film returns to this concept of binaries, noting how some things that seem like dualities really aren’t. The offer of the red pill and blue pill isn’t really a choice because Neo already knows which he must choose, humans and synthients have progressed from an “us versus them” mentality by building a city together, and Smith compares himself and Neo to two opposite sides of a binary sworn to fight forever [[spoiler:but then helps Neo in the climax, breaking the cycle]]. This notion of illusory binaries could be considered an reference to how trans theory holds that there isn’t really a gender binary, but a gender spectrum full of possibilities, and how coming out is often described not as choosing one’s gender but accepting the gender one already knew they were.

** They already did it before, the first time they left Matrix. And that time they were all alone. Now they have each other, they have an entire city that treat them as their messiah, and they are about to bring real change to the world. (And also, most of their friends would still be there, they would be really old, but still there)

** [[spoiler:Chad was a Bot all along. What that means for the kids, who knows.]]
*** [[spoiler:For control, one figures they'd put in a bot for the kids just in case. The Analyst even says that they basically saturated the places around her with bots, so this one is pretty much a given. This is further supported by how the kids seemingly appear out of thin air when Neo approaches Trinity at the cafe even though at first she appeared to be alone.]]
