An example is translation. I MTLed some text recently where the name of a (fictional) city was translated about a dozen different ways. Sometimes you'd get a calque, sometimes you'd get a transliteration (including several wrong ones). Ironically "dumb" MTLs are often much more consistent about this than LLMs.
