This whole idea seems to hang on this statement, and it bothers me. Can this even happen ? I'm not sure it can. And even if it can, surely it's going to happen again when we re-run with the same seed, so we don't need to compensate for it. Before going too far down this rabbit hole, I want to be sure we're not over-engineering for a problem that actually isn't.
