I could be wrong, but I think the original idea for the matrix was that they were using human brains for processing power and not energy. But someone in the movie making process decided people wouldn't understand that and instead went with the battery analogy.

Studio executives made the decision, you know… because there hasn’t be a long list of projects they’ve fucked over the years with their notes. 🙄

I feel so bad for the people who remade The Thing because the studio executives literally forced them to make everything CGI.

Sort of a remake, sort of a prequel.
