It’s kind of interesting relating this to LLMs. A chef in a kitchen you can just say you want PB&J. With a robot, does it know where things are, once it knows that, does it know how to retrieve them, open and close them. It’s always a mystery what you get back from an LLM.

Also true of specifications. Anything not explicitly stated will be decided by the implementer, maybe to your liking or maybe not.
I'm reminded of wish-granting genies, and then of 'undefined behavior' and compilers...
