It's also obvious that LLMs fall over in a vast number of software engineering contexts, when the reasoning involved hasnt been well-represented in their reasoning training data. I imagine this is a near daily experience for many engineers -- great performance one day, and crazyness the next.

So if LLMs were reduced to this pathological performance on hacking, because they'd never seen it -- and only "inferred it" -- then LLMs would be useless. As they are when asked to do quite a lot of things.
