I'm surprised you actually watched them  |
If he earned being the one, then the Oracle didn't know he was the one at the time. Nor even see him as becoming or earing being the One. She was ignorant and that happened to be what Neo needed to hear to keep him being bold. I think the Oracle was not as crafty as your view sees her. Her "reading" was to not see him as the one - not to cover up that she thinks he's the one by not telling him everything.
It would be interesting to ask Erin if that happens in her readings. She only sees what helps the sitter (when being a good reader). Not that she sees everything and has to try to decide what info to give out or not - wouldn't that be a burden? And probably not the way it goes.
