> but do not have even a theory about how the behavior emerges

We fully do. There is a significant quality difference between English language output and other languages which lends a huge hint as to what is actually happening behind the scenes.

You can't smell what ants can. If you did I'm sure it would be evident.

Two very big revelations here that I would love to know more about:

1. Can you reveal "what's actually happening behind the scenes" beyond the hint you gave? I can't figure it out.

2. Can you explain how an ants sense of smell leads to anthills?

Ant 0: doesn’t seem to be dangerous here. I’ll drop a scent.

Ant 1: oh cool, a safe place. And I didn’t die either. I’ll reinforce that.

Ant 142,857,098,277: cool anthill.

I am very curious about this significant hint, could you point me to some material?

They're saying LLMs do better when outputting English than other languages, an assertion I'm not really able to test but have heard elsewhere.
