But your example feels like a bad illustration of your point. LLMs operate on words, and can’t read your mind - if you had given me (a human) this task with these prompts i too would have failed because i can’t divine your intent even slightly.

Then I prompted "Show as html svg". Clear?
It was clear to the bot. Bot showed HTML SVG proving it understood perfectly.
The problem is, it garbaged the content. Imagine the equivalent buried in 1000s of lines of code.
