Since we are talking about LLMs, what I've noticed about the Indian/Pakistani "LLM" is they follow this way of structuring thoughts:

1. They

2. Always

3. List

4. Things

... and end up with a conclusion/punchline/takeaway.

I always wanted to ask, is that due to training?

I could imagine all schools around there have a specific style, like all their assignments need to follow this general form, and then they just get used to it and it permeates to their everyday life.

I bet you haven't seriously communicated with others in a language that is not native to you. You'll probably end up doing similar things if you have to.

It's due to training (I suspect both OpenAI/Microsoft and Google have been training on their entire corpus of internal comms and technical docs). After almost 10 years in a FAANG I also tend to write like that.

That's how all LLMs structure content, not just Indian/Pakistani LLMs.

Well, imagine that you noticed 3 things instead of only one.

1. The first thing

2. The second thing

3. The last thing

Makes perfect sense in that case.
