Because a lack of direction does not imply that there is no bias towards the end result. For example, a river isn't directed, but geologists can predict how it will look like in 100 years based on the soil content, landscape, etc... the river is undirected and yet not random.

I certainly never claimed lack of direction implies there is no bias.

I agree.
