I think that this entire movie was built from that moment backward. The fight scenes, the corporate drama. even the use of AI-driven combat soldiers. In a sense these scenes make up the exoskeleton of the movie. It fleshes it out while setting up the key scene. It didn't matter to me that there were big logical holes or tons of unanswered questions. The core of the the movie was merely a daughter forgiving herself and her mother. The cleansing of a lifetime's worth of anger resulting in a rebirth by robotic proxy of her mother, unburdened by concerns about her daughter, now set free to live however she desires. I believe that's what the writer wanted to display. That is the mind/heart/soul of the movie. The rest is just a shell, a conveyance of an idea. It doesn't have to make sense. Just like a robot missing a limb or two, it just has to get the job done.
