Aren't there people with dementia in the matrix?

I they meant in the original concept of the plot, where humans were used for their brains' processing power. In the movie I don't think it would matter too much since they just need our heat and electricity.

Maybe the matrix needs a little more processing power, so it puts people in comas and gives dementia to save on bandwidth. Or something.
