[ That’s what passes for data? ]

No.. if you can “know” what random “IS” then it is no longer random!...
destroying the meaning of the word..

Random is like the word infinite.. words describing the unknowable..
They are like..... UNDATA.. or question marks..

Humans seem to HATE Undata.. they refuse to “embrace” the UNdata..
And use words like spirit, god, devine.. theory... even Utopia..
Unicorns are a stretch but I like the concept.. for artistic reasons..

If, within the limits of statistical capabilities, one can establish that there is no pattern, then random is the appropriate descriptive word. Where statistical analysis is not reliably applied, then the use of random is subjective.
