Yes indeed!
And HAL's "reason" for murder: to somehow save the mission (2010)?!
Does this suggest that evolution is predicated upon the consumption of metaphysical resources - that HAL, in order to have autonomy must "consume" any competition?
Going into the space of all/no time at the end is faithfully eerie to me.
Landmark journey, landmark film.
