"But Thomas, it's not outputting the same thing for the same questions!" That's because pseudorandom tokens are used in the the input state of the algorithm. There may also be implementation details adding randomness such as race conditions. Doesn't matter—that's all input state.

The BBC has received criticism for their constant coverage of a minority right-wing Party in the UK. Their response, today, is to flood the news pages with multiple features. Labour have 403 MPs, the LibDems have 71 MPs, Reform have 8 MPs. This coverage is insane.
