>> I don't understand your derision. Where is the "straw man"?

I find it very difficult to believe at this point that you are arguing in good faith.

Your COPY-PASTE example is nonsensical as already pointed out.

Do you also think that a printing press (or a rubber-stamp for that matter) demonstrates reasoning?

>> Your COPY-PASTE example is nonsensical as already pointed out.

But will you explain why it is nonsensical? Because that has not yet been pointed out.

Lest you forget, here is what the OP said that I replied to:

>> when i show the output that clearly demonstrates reasoning and understand, the arguments quickly shift to "it's not real understanding!" and it's honestly very bizarre.

I also showed "output" that "clearly demonstrates reasoning and understand[ing]". Why is that nonsensical?

Edit: although it won't be very helpful to discuss this if you're not the OP and don't make the same assumptions as they. But go ahead anyway.
