Possible Story Ideas

[Neoteny]

It was fleshed out enough to make it hard to step around. It was confirmed as being written by The Oracle. It was confirmed as being directly related to Neo and his control over machines in the outside world (which sparked The Oligarch's interest in the first place). It was confirmed as being locked up in The Oligarch network and activated by emotion. It's purpose is to "help control the human population outside the simulation". It had direct knowledge of Neo and Trinity's exchanges noone else would. Ghost knew it was Trinity.

Most of these things invalidate it being Sati (wasn't written by the Oracle, Neo interfaced with machines before having ever meet Sati) and were designed to fill in a lot of holes in the story (Neo and Trinity's miracles, the device The Assassin witnessed being attached to Trinity's body etc) as well as bring some more weight to the character driven stories (Ghost, The Kid going after the Oligarchs in the real)

Don't let the fact you feel it invalidates too much of your perseption of Revelations change the fact it's the natural direction of that story. To do anything else with it would feel too artificial. Besides, if it really messed up the brother's vision they would've shot it down the same as they did humans not actually powering the machines.

Hm. I guess you make a good point. So that pretty much just cuts out the Sati thing and leaves in the Trinity thing.

The Trinity thing could be as simple as an error, with the program being released too soon, not having enough time to be washed of its previous identity. The conflict over this and the program's right to be (and right to be what or whom) could be interesting. I suppose if it went that way, I wouldn't mind it going on too long (or permanently) but it would end up fading into the background a bit by the end, when something new would be introduced, unless it were used as a part of the war.

Yeah, I guess it's pretty workable from that angle.
