This usage note is good, but putting it just in the commit log will mean that it gets lost. It should be in a --help message, or failing that in a source code comment. I'm not sure I believe in the realism of random priorities. Random priorities are are worst case for the optimization that skips subtables based on priorities. Our NSDI paper showed that subtables tend to have a small number of priorities (often just one) in practice. If n_rules < n_subtables, or if the random numbers come out just right, then I think that the classifier will have fewer than the requested number of subtables. Also, if the same rule is generated more than once, the classifier will have fewer than the requested number of rules.
