Perhaps the use of conversational, non-standard syntax is someone's idea
of how to pass the Turing Test.

Do you find this attempt at a paraphrase acceptable?

I wonder how many ways the AI can paraphrase its own
statements. Testing that might reveal its basic unit of information
which could be a library of fine-sounding complete sentences.

Here is an example that I studied when asked to design a controller
for the new small hard drives in the early 80's. https://deramp.com/downloads/floppy_drives/FD1771%20Floppy%20Controller.pdf

This is the manual-read which saved someone's life https://twindisc.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/MG-MGX-Operators-manual-1016313_RevL_0818_CD.pdf
Labelled Pages 3-5 to 3-8.
Not on your level of sophistication, but the "stripped" diagram was what conveyed what the things do and how they work.
A few days later a boatperson got caught in the bight / loops of their
own rope on a nearly 30m work-boat...
I knew the fingers of one hand had more digits than there were seconds
for whatever needed to be done to have been done...
Having seen that diagram, I knew the answer in that moment - get along,
hail the skipper and get the boat to power astern into the current until
the boatperson could climb out of their own rope.
Manuals can be the raw information source which provides "the penny
drops" moment.
-----------------------------------
Shifting to neutral would still have allowed the propeller to continue
to pull in the rope from the current flow?
Understanding the electrical schematic of my car saved me from a
lawsuit. It was a habit acquired from designing automotive electronics
test equipment. I also quickly realized that a leaking thermostat was
why the torque converter wouldn't lock up in cruise on my present car.
I saw that the low fuel level sensor was a negative temperature
coefficient (NTC) thermistor (variable resistor) on the fuel pump in
series with the dash warning lamp. Immersion in fuel kept the
thermistor cool and high resistance, when exposed it would heat up,
the resistance drop, and the current rise enough to light the bulb,
which then limited the current and further heating.
That process had been claimed to be a trade secret of the previous
employer of the developers of the machine I was working on, though the thermistor maker had published how to design it, a tricky balance of temperature, varying resistance and heat loss to air or liquid. Heat conductivity tapped into my Chemistry and Physics training, the power division between variable loads in series is a Calculus problem.
The lawyer asked me innocent questions at first and then where I got
the idea for my no-moving-parts liquid level detector circuit to which
I could immediately answer "Oh, that's how my car's low fuel light
works", which cleared me of the Intellectual Property theft
charge. The rest of the lawsuit crippled the company and ended the
project. I had lost the previous job the same way. The cost and
distraction of fighting a suit is enough to ruin a small company
putting its resources into new product development, whether they would
win or lose.

The rope was already attached to the boats bits, and had just had the
loop of its eye-spliced end put around our barge's bollard. The line
would have gone tight as the vessel powered against that spring-line
with the rudders over 45deg to bring its stern in against our barge
despite the fast current onto its stern.
Even running-out through the fairlead the boatperson didn't have good prospects.
There was no entanglement with the propeller.
To advantage - in general polypropylene rope floats - don't get any
lose on the water, but most of the time a mishap will be got-away-with
as the rope floats clear of the propeller(s) (?).
----------------------------
I guessed wrong. I'm rarely around boats but when I am I pay attention
to handling procedures and know what you meant. Mostly I canoe on
lakes and streams. Wildlife seems less afraid if it doesn't see leg
motion, like on a Segway.
