You're right, it was kind of rude. Apologies. I really would rather be wrong, for a reason I gave in another comment.
The thing is, you can interact with this new kind of actor as much as you need to to judge this -- make up new problems, ask your own questions. "LLMs can't think" has needed ever-escalating standards for "real" thinking over the last few years.

I think a better question is "what is the value of thought?" when it came to conclusions such as yours: "I should be rude to this poster because they disagree with me"
