There were too many issues, so Lex simplified them. He made a list of issues that needed to be dealt with in the order of importance and urgency. The system's absorption of Primordial energy was clearly a major issue based simply on the fact that it showed Lex a fake system report.
From the day he got his system, he'd been distrustful of it, but no matter its intentions, it always adhered to the rules and structure that governed its operations. He had not come to trust the system, for its intentions were to use Lex for entertainment purposes, but he had come to trust the holistic nature of the guidelines that governed the systems actions.
If by absorbing Primordial energy the system could bypass those firm boundaries, then everything he had built using the system was at risk.
