Again, you're talking about something different than scaling. There are many different aspects of emotions, life, or even learning. But the comment was about scaling learning, which can be unaffected by other aspects, such as whether you learned something incorrect.
More succinctly:
I can still teach Simpson's Rule in a Calculus class to a young man or woman who subscribes to Creationism, or the Flat Earth theory. None of their false knowledge affects their innate ability to take in new knowledge.

But for certain criteria, like the possession of knowledge, it appears attention-based LLMs aren't capable of that, regardless the amount of data. So they don't "scale" if you use that as an objective function.
