It seemed in Messiah, Paul had just become a pain in the arse teenage with too many powers where no conversation was straight forward, it always had to mention "the infinite opportunities or prescient vision" in some manner, by the end of the book it got tiring. It got waaaayyy too preachy, mystical and messiahry with no real thread to keep it held together. The exact same thing happened in Messiah as it did in Matrix Revolutions and Reloaded.
