What if reincarnation? When someone dies in the Matrix, their body gets reconnected to another baby in the Matrix. As for how the human population is maintained outside of the Matrix… either the machines keep catching more humans, or something like artificial insemination. Or cloning
That would actually be a good idea. With people growing up and learning on their own, you don’t have a fully controlled system. The world inside the Matrix will be evolving and from time to time there will be some glitch somewhere. If you have a base of defined childhoods, then only physical differences between bodies and random occurences inside are uncontrolled
If I were to construct the Matrix, I would go after cloning (fewer biological lottery) and predefined lifepaths to keep everything nice and stable

No, if you die in the Matrix you die in real life
The body cannot survive without the mind
My neighbor begs to differ. That jackass is completely brain dead.
Hehe.
You think that’s air you’re breathing?
It’s actually microplastics
“Are you saying I can dodge taxes?”
“No, neocapitalism, I’m trying to tell you that when you’re ready, you won’t have to.”
“If you can dodge taxes, you can dodge a ball”
But why would the bother with this? How would that help with anything?

Kinda reminds me of Brave New World
Well, they also were after stability
