If we’re remembering correctly (it’s been a while since last seeing The Matrix), the narrative also manages to dehumanize the people they’re killing making it seem like a computer simulation wit...
The framing de-humanizes them but not necessarily for logical reasons. They are all real biological people that are plugged into the Matrix and die in real life if they are killed in the Matrix, and experience pain and so forth.
