> obviously ambiguous nonsense

This is where I land as well. In fact, once I read the prompt, I did a Ctrl+F for "nonsense".

I don't see anything at all interesting about this experiment. The human one is slightly more interesting, but not much.

Ideally, it would be nice if a model could just say "these things are all the same and there are no distinguishing factors other than the names"-- but uncertainty is something that agents are (by design, sort of?) not good at, so all other things being equal, it picks one.

My response is, so what? I am struggling to think of a scenario where this would really matter to me all that much. There are many, many other things which matter far more and this would be pretty far down the list. It may not even be on the list.
