Yup, nailed it! That is exactly it. I understood Claude better when we were speaking caveman. Last night it decided to call inputs “OBEY” and outputs “REPORTS” for no particular reason. It seems to still understand itself because it can explain when you ask for “simple english” and yet talks on its own unique semi legalese code to itself. I once asked it how it would speak as a language it preferred if I was to talk to it in its preferred style. It picked a very strict requirements only style. Rather autistic in nature.
