That's indeed what ChatGPT says. Did you ever heard about AI hallucinations?
I better trust:
1) the UCI options list
2) the fact I keep using SF16 with NNUE disabled for some analysis matters, aside to SF17. And the difference on the field is clear, whether enabled or disabled.
3) check here. Someone posted an "issue" about disabling NNUE with SF16, but stood corrected by an official maintainer from the SF team. The requester was using a DEV version, not the official SF16. Dev version led to SF16.1, where the disable NNUE was removed, as I stated in my previous post.

As a given, I am always right, Nick, don't you know that?
