To use an analogy, it seems to me that this non-sentient site is sort of using anthropic reasoning.
So would a rock with the same inscription. Which is to say, it’s not the non-sentient site, but the sentient author and reader, who are using reasoning of any sort.
To the extent that anthropic reasoning works at all, it doesn’t seem like sentience should be needed.
