What are those things exactly? AFAIK, everything we can "know" can be written down, one way or another, even analog circuits.
Also, what SOTA LLMs are you referring to? GPTs been handling analog circuits fine for quite some time, I want to say for at least one year? I've been "pair programming" a bunch of working circuits with GPT models since probably GPT 5 or so.

Do you know how to ride a bike?

writing down circuit diagrams is like cooking about music.

I have done a survey among analog electronics designers just a couple weeks ago and they all said that their forays into LLMs were great for digital electronics, code, and firmware, but for analog they were pretty terrible, with a variety of LLMs, according to everyone.
