To reply to myself here..

I can STILL replicate this behavior in Google AI summaries 10% of the time:

"is <SOMEPLANT> ok for cats"

to which it replies: "Yes, <SOMEPLANT LONG SCIENTIFIC NAME VERBOSE PHRASING> is toxic for cats"

The other one going around this weekend: "how long hot dogs on grill"

Summary: "The hot dogs on your grill are likely around 5-6 inches long .. "

So scale this category of error to unsupervised agents with access to your credit card.
