On that page:

================================================
OK, so The One is a human with enhanced genetics, enhanced implants, and a
machine programmed mind, and was created by the Oracle and the Architect to
carry out a specific purpose (form of control in and out of the Matrix) in
each iteration of the Matrix.
================================================

I didn't read that whole page, but... isn't it the case that Zion is
actually inside a sort of "super matrix," or "meta-matrix?" At the end of
the second movie, Neo manages to stop some of the squid-like machines while
not jacked in to the matrix... which implied to me that Zion, the "choice"
taken by the .01 of humans, is actually part of the machine world, too...
the whole escape-to-Zion is just escapism...
