I'm being pedantic here but... I think the correct statement is "the more context an LLM or human has TO A POINT, the better decision it can make".
For example it's common to bury an adversary in paperwork in legal discovery to try to obscure what you don't want them to find.
Humans do not do better with excessive context and it is appearing that although you can go to 2m tokens etc. they don't actually understand. They ONLY do well at "find the needle in the haystack, here's a very specific description of the needle" tasks but nothing that involves simultaneously considering multiple parts of that.
