The character of Switch was originally meant to be male in the real world and female in the Matrix. Warner Brothers put a stop to that.

Not sure why, would have been a pretty cool addition to the universe.

I can imagine nowadays people saying it's "too woke" though.

I can think of one reasonable reason for it. They'd be harder to identify between the two versions. It makes some sense to not change the look that much (or the actor if that was the plan) to not confuse the audience.

Makes sense. Sucks it never happened though because that would have been a cool idea.
