the closed-source nature of these LLMs makes reproducibility very difficult,

It's not even clear what you are trying to say.
A far more interesting and nuanced take than your naked dismissive statement.
It's politer, but it's not nuanced. He clearly says there was no evidence in the paper to move him to accept the philosophical claim.
He's polite because he was hand selected by the company, but the meaning is the same:
The philosophical claim is a hypothesis that isn't supported by the evidence presented in the paper. Being that is the primary claim of the paper (and title), it would therefore be rejected in peer review (or modifications requested, since the other hypotheses are supported).
These were peer reviewed and published, but guess what, it was not blind peer review (the reviewers knew the author names and that this was from Google) and some of the venues I looked at even had Google as a sponsor.
I don't know which cases you are talking about, but recently the 'reviewers' have been hand selected by the authors (or company or whatever). Anonymous peer review is a good thing.
The traditional path is badly broken as well, hence this alternate publishing venue has merit and some things published this way meet full scientific standards.
It's one thing to post a paper on Arxiv.
It's another thing to post a paper that wouldn't pass peer review on Arxiv.
