Come to think of it, it’s kind of odd they didn’t give her Apoc’s white shirt. Everyone else’s color scheme in the matrix is kinda black-on-black, varying only by matte black versus shiny black, except for Morpheus’s tucked green tie.
If the franchise had gone very differently, and explored the tech more than the philosophy, there’d be people with wholly different personalities in and out of simulation. They are literally online personas. If this had spawned a TV show instead of two-ish sequels, there’d be awakened hackers who spend all their free time in their ship’s construct, and barely function outside of it. Basically the antihero version of Cypher’s path: they recognize the necessity of defeating the machines, but long for modern comfort. They heard about people rejecting the matrix 1.0 utopia and said “I would just not let that happen to me.” Once Zion triumphs they’re gonna retire to some lotus-eater solipsism. Anyway: it’d fit a character named “Switch.” Maybe give her the only vibrant colors in the crew’s wardrobe. Or at least dazzling patterns. Turn the contrast with her all-white getup into multiple forms of contrast.
“I think it makes me look cunning.”

Alright, between the two of us, do we have enough resources for a time machine and production costs for the original matrix?
Given access to a time machine, we can presumably acquire sufficient funds through shenanigans.
Given my current resources… I am prepared to provide the shenanigans.
edit: But apparently they’re doing another damn movie anyway, so we may yet see all possible outcomes.
