I only read up to the "Petals around the Rose" exercise. I found it pretty easy to deduce (induce?) but the author is right, there's no general algorithmic method to do it .. except for intelligence.
So, the solution is "AI", and even then it's only a "probably".
The exercise didn't necessarily feel easy to deduce within the 20 minutes I tried, but after asking LLMs (spoilers alert!):
1. How big of a hint is the name
2. How big of a help will choosing numbers manually be
3. How important is the number of dies
4. How familiar do I have to be with flowers
The answer to the riddle, and then to the questions I asked were immediately obvious. I feel kind of ashamed, haha.

I admire your breakdown, and I felt your pain.
My frustration was with opening a new tab for each sample because I was too lazy to transcribe rolls (for review) -- so once I'd opened and revisited about 16 tabs I got rather annoyed and just started rapid rolling looking for high values ...
After about 30 seconds of this pique I rolled a Yahtzee 55555 value 20 and went: Doh!
My takeaway is that using "induction" to illuminate Human ~vs LLM may be wrong framing when Eureka moments are possible.

Neo: Hiya fellas.
Agent 1: It’s him.
Agent 2: The Anomaly.
Agent 3: Do we proceed?
Agent 2: Yes.
Agent 3: He is still...
Agent 1: ...only human.
Neo: Hmm--*upgrades* [beats all three nonetheless]
