Then the Library of Babel must be really good at these tests, because it's never seen anything and yet has every answer.

They can, a static program as I described would indeed answer that one question correctly, resulting in a positive ToM score, without seeing any training data whatsoever. Did the programmer see it? Maybe, but it would pass the test regardless.
That's funny, I thought you said the test's answer was embedded into the program, making it definitionally not novel to the program.
Anyway, this is boring. You've had five or more opportunities to understand what the word "novel" means in an ML testing context and are choosing wilful obtuseness instead.
