LLMs also never get tired of arguing. They'll respond to every point from a gish-gallop and provide quality-sounding replies to points that are obviously (to an informed person) flawed or seem (but aren't necessarily) mal-intentioned.

EDIT: LLMs also aren't egocentric; they'll respond in the other person's style (grammar, tone, and perhaps maintain their "subtext" like assumptions), and they're less likely to omit important information that would be implicit to them but not the other person.

Any qualities you ascribe to an LLM is part of its RLHF, ask to get irritated or lazy and it will simulate those qualities. They are high dimensional text simulators. They can and do simulate anything.
