one thing I was wondering, is, if LLMs are word completions seemingly coming up with new solutions could this just be because stuff that was kept secret and now - is no longer is due to ingestion? I dont know enough about it tho

why would you keep secret this particular mathematical idea? it's not extraordinarily important, it's not on the path to some other major result, doesn't seem useful in financial trading. even author calls it good reasonable problem for a PhD thesis.
