The stove keeps burning me because I can't tell how hot it is, it feels random and the indicator light it broken.

The most rigorous definition of temperature is that it is equal to the inverse of the rate of change of entropy with respect to internal energy, within a given volume V and particles N held constant. All accessible microstates are equiprobable over a long period of time, this is the very definition of ergodicity! Yet, because of the flow of entropy the observed macrostates will remain stable. Thus, we can say the the responses of a given LLM are...

I'm calling the doctor, and getting a new stove with an indicator light.

Well really, the reason why I gripe about it, to use your example, is that then they believe the indicator light malfunctioning is an intrinsic feature of stoves, so they throw their stove out and start cooking over campfires instead, tried and true, predictable, whatever that means.

I think my deck of cards example still holds.

You could argue I'm being uselessly pedantic, that could totally be the case, but personally I think that's cope to avoid having to think very hard.
