As discussed in another thread, my (and sombody elses) guess is, that the
Merv is the first "The One" who failed its mission. Merv might have chosen
exile and now hangs on to his great power. Any change to the Matrix - forced
by Neo - will result in destruction of the Mervs "power base". Thus all
kinds of changes is an enemy to him - which includes Neo.

Because they are machines and not human. Dishonesty is after all a human
property.

My guess is, that Neo in fact lost the battle against Smith. But through
Neo's body the machines are able to send thounds of "volts" through the
computer causing break down to all programmes. The big question then is:
"why didn't the machines "burn the matrix" much earlier?
