I can understand why you may not want to break existing API. Why not add another similar interface done the right way?

I think nobody of us needs to be convinced anymore that making it a
'double' was a bad idea.
But the RAND api is very ancient and changing the argument type would be a
breaking change.
That's why we didn't dare to touch it when we overhauled the RNG
implementation for 1.1.1,
because we tried very hard not to add unnecessary breaking changes to the
ones made in 1.1.0.
