I think if he would’ve been like “I’ve rally changed my mind. I can’t do this.” Neo and Morpheus I feel would’ve tried to help him re-enter the matrix.

The whole thing was about “give them a choice” and I think everyone would have at least understood how he fealt and would’ve tried to get him back into the matrix at his request.

I feel like he didn’t even try talking about it before he went to the agents.

I know it’s meaningless just wondering what other people thought.

The last point actually says a lot.

A lot of my confusion is “Morpheus was a rule follower”

The correct answer you put forth is “yes and he’s on very thin ice because of it already”

Valid argument. Yeah Zion is 99 percent done with Morpheus Shannagins already. Fair point.
