Like the grocery store chat bot that recommended mixing bleach and ammonia for a "fresh scent!"

When specifically prompted to do something involving mixing bleach and ammonia.

It's evidence to me of the LLM or whatever's inability to reason in the slightest. It's currently unsuitable and dangerous as is.

[edit: In fact, we know how it is implemented, and it does NOT reason - there is no implementation of reasoning, only putting word/concepts/forms together that are plausible. ]

Ok they host some services on AWS and GCP, use Zendesk for support tickets, you can log in to JB using a GitHub account, and they use Google Analytics and a 3rd party payment system for billing. What exactly is the problem?

Don't expect me to provide an exhaustive list of problems. In support of my "blank check" statement above, CTRL+F, "not limited to".
