That's the point of what I said no logical deduction and reasoning is used and the probabilistic models are of many overlapping layers.
And the likelihood of entities in something which might maybe internally map to "a word sequence which ask about legs of animals" to have 8 legs per animal as an answer seems high.
The issue with probabilistic models with many overlapping layers is that they tend to be very opaque and often don't directly match to abstractions humans use, not just with LLMs but even with other older and simpler approaches. E.g. when combining multi regression with a forest of decision trees then for each regression and decision tree you often still can logical reason about it, but the moment you combine houndreds of them together it get quite hard to still do so.
