What's not clear is how how people get into the "pairing system" in the first place, or what the consequences of not "obeying the rules" consists of, other than "banishment". But beyond that, it's a great story, no matter how unlikely it might become possible in the real world . . . At least in current times.
Maybe in a future world of compressed time and high velocity social complexities, this sort of AI enhanced "social pairing" system might become a thing.
In any case, the moral of this story might be, the surface veneer of a circumstance can be far more than profoundly misleading. Of course, nary a hint at what the ending eventually becomes here, although there are some cleverly disguised hints lurking about in the story as it unfolds . . . But what can be said for certain, you will likely not guess what that ending is 'till it happens, and it won't disappoint.
Remarkably well acted, well worth the time to watch and experience.
One of the best ever presented in the Black Mirror series . . . 10 for 10.
