The point is, the Heisenberg Uncertaintly Principle is not about randomness, but about probability. Big difference.

Sorry, i posted too soon. To expland upon my last point — randomness is linked to probability, obviously, but randomness is a state of the probability of some state of affairs — meaning essentially that all outcomes are equally likely. That’s not what Heisenberg’s principle concludes, as I understand it.
