I would call it obedience, and it's not the same as friendliness.

The difference, in a repeated prisoner dilemma: Friendliness is cooperating on the first move, and then conditionally. Obedience is always cooperating.

Agreeableness is a Big Five personality trait so a lot of the formal research into personalities uses it as one of the dimensions.
Yeah but I would argue it's different from both friendliness and obedience.
Do you have a standard and a body of work you can point to in an effort to aid with communication these thoughts to others? At the very least there should be a reversible projection to the Big 5 standard.
I don't think Big5 applies to LLMs. They don't share people's morality or common sense, and the traits are predicated on that.

Lol, you convinced a LLM to agree with you. I use the Big5 as a way of communicating where there is a common reference and a large body of work. How people think they think and how they actually think are two different things, people are much closer to LLMs than they think they are. I can't provide evidence for this for a variety of reasons so at this point we're just going to have to agree to disagree.
Actually, it's the other way around - I used LLM to think about it independently to check if my intuition made sense.

I agree with its arguments (and I generally found LLMs argue better than myself, that's why I use them).

It's disappointing that you dismiss it without providing a counterargument.
