I didn't misunderstand. I'm talking about all the exciting unintended behaviors you're adding and all the invariants that you're not preserving by arriving at solutions through randomness rather than careful design and engineering.

Yes a function will always do "the exact same thing" at runtime, but that "thing" isn't guaranteed to be free from race conditions and other types of bugs.
