Exposure to our language is sufficient to teach the model how to form human-relatable judgements. The ability to execute tool calls and evaluate the results takes care of the rest. It's reasoning.

SELECT next_word, likelihood_stat FROM context ORDER BY 2 DESC LIMIT 1
is not reasoning; it just appears that way due to Clarke’s third law.
Sure, at the end of the day it selects the most probable token - but it has to compute the token probabilities first, and that's the part where it's hard to see how it could possibly produce a meaningful log like this without some form of reasoning (and a world model to base that reasoning on).
So, no, this doesn't actually answer the question in a meaningful way.
