Exactly. If there'd been a brief bit of dialogue about how they'd have to kill the guards. Maybe Neo going, "So their bodies will be flushed, like that thing did to me?" and Trinity just saying "Yes," and a heavy beat, and then, "We have to get Morpheus out, Neo. Everything depends on it."

At least that way it's acknowledged and we see that they care. But of course, as you say, that would be a downer. And in the movie's defense, that shoot-em-up scene was SO. COOL. when The Matrix came out. Hell, it's still cool af. So I do kind of get why the Wachowskis didn't want to sour the awesomeness of that scene. I mean, it's basically an iconic scene at this point, and it might well not be if people had been busy thinking about the poor innocent security guards who were getting blown away. *shrugs*

I don't know, I think I still would have preferred if they'd acknowledged it though.
