Yeah, but the logic they’re capable of is context free. The weights on the decision tree are jacked up. Ask a 3 year old if they’d trade their dad for a bath tub of Mac and cheese and you’ll get an emphatic yes half the time.
I once told my 4yo he needed to go run around outside for a little while and he solemnly walked outside and ran in a circle sobbing. I asked him why he was crying and he said “a while is forever”.

Me, after spending one hour playing with my son: ok now I’m going to spend some time with your sister
My son, five minutes later: NOBODY EVER WANTS TO PLAY WITH ME
