[jhhh]

I asked gemini a few months ago if getopt shifts the argument list. It replied 'no, ...' with some detail and then asked at the end if I would like a code example. I replied simply 'yes'. It thought I was disagreeing with its original response and reiterated in BOLD that 'NO, the command getopt does not shift the argument list'.

Gemini by default will produce a bunch of fluff / junk towards the very end of its response text, and usually have a follow-up question for the user.

I usually skip reading that part altogether. I wonder if most users do, and the model's training set ended up with examples where it wouldn't pay attention to those tail ends
