The issue that you are missing is that the AI answered that there is 1 'r' in 'strawbery' even though there are 2 'r's in the misspelled word. And the AI corrected the user with the correct spelling of the word 'strawberry' only to tell the user that there are 2 'r's in that word even though there are 3.
Sure, but for what purpose would you ever ask about the total number of a specific letter in a word? This isn't the gotcha that so many think it is. The LLM answers like it does because it makes perfect sense for someone to ask if a word is spelled with a single or double "r".
It makes perfect sense if you do mental acrobatics to explain why a wrong answer is actually correct.
Not mental acrobatics, just common sense.
