Not entirely a straw man. What is the purpose of storing and retrieving LLMs at a fixed state if not to guarantee a specific performance? Wouldn’t a strong model of intelligence be capable of, to extend your analogy, running without having its hippocampus lobotomized?
Given the precariousness of managing LLM context windows, I don’t think it’s particularly unfair to assume that LLMs that learn without limit become very unstable.
To steelman, if it’s possible, it may be prohibitively expensive. But somehow I doubt it’s possible.

It is, indeed, prohibitively expensive. But it's not impossible. The proof is in the fact that you can fine-tune LLMs.
