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.
Like they can teach a guy king fu in seconds.
I’m sure they could be like “okay will plug you back in at the designated facility where we help people like you, we’ll wipe your memory the best we can and you’ll go back. It won’t be exactly the same but if you commit to forgetting and we scrub what we can… in time it’ll taste like stake again. I empathize with those feelings and I’m sorry you choose the matrix but we understand. It’s actually pretty common around here”
