The core issue is that the LLM is using rhetoric to try to convince or persuade you. That's what you need to tell it not to do.

Which will not work. Don't think of a pink genitalia, I mean elephant...

An LLM that can't follow instructions wouldn't be able to write code anyway.

Nonsense. But even an LLM that can follow instructions cannot follow that one.

What is intrinsic to an LLM or its training that would prevent it from following the directive that it should not try to convince you of something?
