If he couldn't, it was The One.

And the movie is "Revolutions," not "Revisited." Most people hated the two sequels (at least that I've talked to) because it had too much philosophy and NOT ENOUGH action and bullet time and fighting.
I understand why he fought Seraph, I just felt it was "this is a Matrix movie, so we need kung fu on wires". There could have been 1000 other ways to test that Neo was The One.

And I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on the sequels, because I felt that they did nothing to answer the questions posed in the original film, and that the 45 minutes of shooting sentinal machines invading Zion wasn't terribly philosophical.
