Watching the Animatrix is always a good idea to get more detail. The 
Matrix was designed to be as realistic as possible. At first, the world 
was designed to make all of its inhabitants happy, but the machines 
quickly figured out that trying to appease humans was a futile effort 
because it ended in disaster every time. After a few failures, they 
chose what they considered to be a peak in human evolution, the 1990s, 
and made sure that there realistic limits to what the humans could do. 
For instance, you cannot possibly run faster than x, you also couldn't 
ever be more muscular than y. To break through those limits, you would 
have to be special (anomalies or bugs in the system), and agents were 
deployed to squash you back into the walled garden. However, if the 
people who successfully exited got to you first, you'd be given the 
choice to return to the only reality you've known or live in the real 
world, which is clearly much worse than what you've known. However, the 
latter choice would also give you the benefit of being able to 
superpower your avatar should you choose to return into the system. Of 
course, doing so makes you an agent's enemy.

It truly is quite a brilliant story. Theoretically, parts 2 and 3 are 
quite smart too. It's too bad they became so convoluted. The Matrix 
Resurrections, however, is awful and ruins everything.
