go together.

Sam, if you're building a car,
do you want *anything* in the
production process to be
random?

Such as a "pinch" of salt. For any given cook, I suspect the
mass of salt in a "pinch" has a normal distribution.

Same is true for various alignments of parts in automobile
assemblage. One desires to keep the "random" variations below
some specified limit.


Exactly!!
One seeks to reduce tolerances in
order to improve mileage, increase lifetime, etc.

Random is a *bad* thing. It is not something
that should be part of any blueprint. Let alone
a TOE

If you're cooking with a number of ingredients,
which part of that process do you want to
be random?

If you're dressing for work, is that a random process, perhaps?
