It's not just that LLMs are probabilistic, it's that the illusion of reasoning in English doesn't transfer to formal systems. I find it quite interesting how far LLM reasoning can be pushed in for example code generation. But there is a massive difference between plausible argumentation and provably correct statements.

Data retrieval is not "reasoning". A person with a photographic memory and instant recall is not necessarily a "genius" --- though it may appear that way to some.
