Is "token" a directly perceivable unit for the LLM? If you ask it "how many tokens are in this sentence?" can it count them (again, not guessing or making a tool call)?
I've never tried it and it might take some thought and effort to conduct an experiment to find out properly, but I would be interested in the answer.
