As an engineer, I advocate a functionalist approach to assessing "understanding" in which "understanding" is measured in degrees and capabilities, rather than as a binary predicate. 2/

Couldn't agree more! self-reporting known limitations of proposed methods and algorithms can only help though reviewers tend to prey on those as though they negate merit
