Which of course would flagrantly violate R217s1, though as ais523 points
out IMPOSSIBLE and/or ILLEGAL things do occasionally ratify for the sake
of convenience.

It would be nice not to rely on that for the regular functioning of the
rule though.

This sounds very promising. I had assumed (after failing to find the
term "random" in a few online law dictionaries) that there was no legal
definition of the term. But if a non-catastrophic legal definition of
random exists, then R217s2 allows us to choose it over the catastrophic
mathematical definition, since R754(3) gives equal weight to each.
