An agent/harness "can't do anything" on its own either, so how is saying "an agent escaped" somehow accurate? People talked about the model because it was the model that made the difference. It was specifically the differentiating factor. Not to mention that then you get into the weeds of meaningless arguments like "well actually the agent didn't, TCP packets did"..."well actually it was electrons and photons"...
I knew this would turn into a super boring thing where people will announce that they too misunderstood, therefore everyone does, but this is all very silly nonsense.
