I agree. The math shows that they could not get enough bodies together to
generate the energy required, even if they were quite good at synthesisizing

1) With the energy needed to extract these, is it still workable? Is the
energy needed for mining small enough for the system to be sustainable?

Ah, okay. Thinking in masses is so

Yea, so the question is, is the story crap, or have they accounted for all

If you mean how much electrical power is used in the US, you are
definitely wrong. And that is not my humble opinion, it is fact.

And my random other observation about the matrix:
Why the heck should the matrix be "just like real life in the year 2000"
or whatever?
Why not make it a perfect, ideal paradise for everyone? Then no one would

leave it, and no one would be killed prematurely by violence in the

Could be. Or if you don't like the way I do it, you could do it
yourself.
