You think that's a simpler explanation? Ok. I think given the amount of effort that goes into "safety" on these systems that my explanation is vastly more likely than somehow this information got lost in the vector soup despite being attached to his name at the top of every search result[0].

Except if safety blocked this, it would have also blocked the linked conversation. Alignment definitely distorts behaviors of models, but treating them as information retrieval systems is using a screw driver to drive nails. Your example didn’t refute this.
