But the machines don't really need an "inside man" because they are confident in their victory - they've destroyed Zion several times before and are getting "exceedingly efficient at it". The only reason the sentinels might intentionally spare Bane/Smith is that they would potentially have an "inside man" during the attack on Zion. He is now an enemy of the machines and the Agents - so the sentinels would be ordered not to obey his orders. But Smith is no longer an Agent so he no longer has this authority - he has disobeyed the rules and avoided deletion, so he is an Exile. It is true that as an Agent, Smith did have the authority to command sentinels from within the Matrix (he orders a sentinel strike in The Matrix). It reaches from here all the way back to where it came from.The Source. The Oracle: The power of the One extends beyond this world. Tell me just what the hell is happening to me. Tell me how I stopped four sentinels by thinking it. Neo: Tell me how I separated my mind from my body without jacking in. The Oracle explains that Neo's power over the sentinels is due to his special connection with the Source since he is the One: We can rule out the hypothesis that Bane had control over the sentinels like Neo did. I've looked through the scripts for both The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, and there's no explicit reason given to the audience because Bane/Smith can't remember what happened (at least, that's what he claims) and he's the only survivor.
